There is [email protected] but it's pretty low traffic and at least I'm
not subscribed there.
For support questions about grub2 our IRC channel is better: #grub on
irc.freenode.net

grub-mkconfig should generate a gfxterm config if you have the fonts
compiled.
If you used grub-mkfont yourself you can use
GRUB_FONT_PATH=/boot/myfont.pf2 in /etc/default/grub
or /usr/local/default/grub depending what --prefix option was used
to ./configure

For `set gfxpayload=1024x768x32' or the deprecated `vga=0x317' to work
you need at least `insmod vbe'
