yeah, I saw once I looked at the script that it was just little wrapper. But I'm pretty sure that somewhere in all the gentoo stuff I was using there is a little bit that says to run update-grub. So not knowing anything about what it might do it seemed like something was wrong. But you are dead right that it ain't much... and certainly not a deal breaker. What can you tell me about how to get an initial hi-res frame buffer during boot and after when in console mode? I know how to do it in grub:0. But I see my first feeble attempt in grub:2 was total non-starter.
