Hi all, Firstly, apologies if this is a duplicate, interesting mail issues at this end... I've returned to Speakup after a while and am enjoying proper Linux console access once again. One thing is frustrating me and I suspect it's been addressed before though a search of prior postings didn't give me the magic I wanted. In the old Grub days I had a vga=0x317 setting in my menu.lst to give a very wide and tall console screen, something like 140 columns and 40+ rows, which made life much better. The migration to Grub2 has given different settings and I can't find a reliable way of getting such an effect now. I've set things like gfxpayload=keep after setting the higher resolution in the config files but this seems to give me the same old 80x25 vconsole size. Is there some magic I'm missing? Using Debian 5 if it makes a difference. Thanks, garry
