Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98~experimental.20100111.1-1
Severity: serious
Hi,
Trying the experimental grub. Like Fabian reported in
<http://bugs.debian.org/564844>, text does not show up in the
graphical boot menu. But that is fine for now; I blindly hit enter,
and grub boots the default item, which is Linux
2.6.33-rc3-next-20100111-02660-g364764 (a recent snapshot of the
linux-next tree).
But the screen with some bullets, a rectangle, and no text does not go
away. Did grub not notice I pressed enter? No, I hear the hard drive
accessed in the same pattern as a normal boot. So I blindly log in
and start X; X is fine. If I switch back to the text-mode console
now, I get something similar to the boot menu screen, but with some
snow mixed in. Back to X, fine. Rebooting Linux with kexec does
nothing to help this. Odd.
Version 1.98~experimental.20091229-1 is similar: though the boot menu
looks like text mode, when Linux boots, it is garbled and I cannot
make out anything until I start X.
Version 1.98~20100110-1, on the other hand, seems to initialize the
console correctly.
Video card is ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x [1002:4c46],
which is to say, an r128. Bugscript output attached.
Despite the glitches, this does look promising. :-)
Hope that helps,
Jonathan
