the gfxmode=640 x 480 is Smaller then the help list. It looks like the width of the help is just to long, (perhaps one or two chars) After every row of help commands there is a empty row, doubling up the needed rows. pushing the upper rows out of the console.
It seems Nvidia (8400GS) has a additional problem. pci-e grub pauses after every width wrap in the console. limiting good cli usage the latter is no issue on the intel ich9 (internal) grub.conf: ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### set default=0 set timeout=5 set root=(hd0,5) if font /share/grub/unicode.pff ; then set gfxmode=640x480 insmod gfxterm insmod vbe terminal gfxterm fi ### END /etc/grub.d/00_header ### _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
