I want to change grub screen resolution. Four facts:
(1) "vbeinfo" and "videoinfo" return no result in grub. The screen blanks and eventually I restart the computer. (2) "hwinfo --framebuffer" returns no result. I would append the logfile, but it's 7500 lines long. (3) running lspci -v -s $(lspci | grep ' VGA ' | cut -d" " -f 1) returns: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 35) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: ASRock Incorporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 121 Memory at 90000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M] Memory at 80000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M] I/O ports at f000 [size=64] [virtual] Expansion ROM at 000c0000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [d0] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [90] MSI: Enable+ Count=1/1 Maskable- 64bit- Capabilities: [b0] Vendor Specific Information: Len=07 <?> Kernel driver in use: i915 Kernel modules: i915 (4) So far, changing GRUB_GFXMODE (in /etc/default/grub) to several of the resolutions I know my monitor supports (and then running "sudo update-grub") has no effect. Any suggestions? I've been running sid for a year, but this has been a problem since I got the computer a couple of years ago and was running stable so I figure it's not sid-specific. -- Lance Simmons
