Package: grub-pc
Version: 2.00-7
Severity: normal
Control: notfound -1 1.99-23
On grub-pc 1.99-23, this machine boots with a graphical grub menu just
fine.
Upon upgrading to 2.00-7, the attached monitor (a Norwood Micro M17CBA
LCD flatpanel connected via VGA) shows "signal out of range". if i
have set GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep in /etc/default/grub, this
persists until the display manager takes over, and puts the video in a
reasonable range.
A functional workaround is to set GRUB_TERMINAL=console in
/etc/default/grub, but most users probably won't know to do this, and
if they're used to a graphical boot sequence, they might wonder why
their monitor isn't showing anything for a while after boot. They
might even think that the system upgrade failed entirely, which would
be bad.
Some diagnostic info that i think might be relevant (i'm happy to
gather more if it would be useful -- please let me know what you'd
like):
Once booted, i can see what the X server believes about the graphics
card/monitor combination:
