Terminal is an ADI ProVista attached to a KVM. Eventually the screen seems to go to sleep and I cannot get it to ever come back. I have modified /etc/default/grub to get # Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only) GRUB_TERMINAL=console which I assumed would shut off any graphical silliness, but it seems to have had no affect. Try GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text. -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
