I.e. it said 0.97? The default Linux loader in GRUB 2 is now different. But maybe something in the Kernel has changed. With GRUB 2 you can try `set gfxpayload=800x600x24' in grub.cfg. Use sudo chmod +w /boot/grub/grub.cfg, then sudo gedit /boot/grub/grub.cfg to edit it. If that works you can make this permanent if you do this: sudo cp /etc/grub.d/40_custom /etc/grub.d/05_gfxpayload sudo gedit /etc/grub.d/05_gfxpayload and then place it there and save the file. You can also try vga=ask if it lists the 800x600x24 mode but this only works in GRUB 2 if you change the linux and initrd commands inside the menuentry to linux16 and initrd16. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- Setting video mode in Grub fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481385 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 481385] [NEW] Setting video mode in Grub fails
Public bug reported: I have a Fujitsu Siemens B Series laptop (500 MHz CPU, Ati Rage Mobility gfx card). On 9.04 everything worked fine: I was able to set vga=0x315 to get 800x600x24 mode in console and run an app I have that's written in SDL. On 9.10 however all I get is a blank screen after adding vga=0x315 to kernel line. This is true for Grub2 and Grub legacy.
