This might help: If the line 'GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text' is in /etc/default/grub and I boot with the kernel parameter 'noplymouth' (instead of default 'quiet splash') then the first few messages after the kernel is loaded do appear on a screen with (estimated) VGA size! But only seconds later t

I'm going to add my two cents of advice. I had the problem as well. This is what I did to solve it. 1) in /etc/grub.d, I've added the line set gfxpayload=keep right after set gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE} 2) in /etc/default I've added the line GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768 3) I ran update-grub, and the grub.

I see the same problem. Even just adding "set gfxpayload=640x480", i.e. setting it to the same as the default resolution, is enough to reproduce the blinking cursor in the upper-left corner. I have an Intel 965 Express Chipset video device, in a Compaq 6910p laptop. Karmic is being booted under
