Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: grub2
When I use "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep" in /etc/default/grub, I only get
a blank screen after selecting the kernel and it doesn't boot. I could
fix this by manually inserting "insmod vbe" to grub.cfg or adding
"GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES=vbe" to /etc/default/grub. This should be done
automatically when GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX is set, for example by adding
it to /etc/grub.d/10_linux:
*** /etc/grub.d/10_linux 2010-03-23 14:39:17.952327708 +0100
--- 10_linux 2010-03-23 14:57:46.506358515 +0100
