Video Resolution, Grub2 and Kernel 2.6.32

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



When I installed grub2 a short while back, I was using the kernel 2.6.31.6 and I enjoyed a full screen of 1024.768 32K color depth. I followed the steps outlined here <http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB2#Setting_the_framebuffer_resolution> to the letter and all was great.

But when the kernel26 package upgraded to 2.6.32.2, This functionality broke. I ended up having to remove the video related stuff from my grub line to get my system to boot. When I say this didn't work anymore, basically my system wouldn't boot and I end up with a blank screen showing.

When I experimented by removing the insmod statement and using vga=790 by itself, the best I get is a 30 line display with 80 columns width.

Anyone know what changed? It would appear that we may need to update the wiki page with new info for grub2 and video resolution.
