Re: Grub: Changing vga setting.

Horton heard a Who named jellybean stonerfish saying:

Can grub be set to display its data in different vga modes?

Lazy me, asking here first. Now I will go to the grub site, and
read what I can to find out. If I figure out how, or find out it is
impossible, I will let you all know.

If you have the right setting in the kernel (CONFIG_FB=y ... I think) you need
to add the correct setting in grub. Here's part of my grub for your benefit:

title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-4-686
root (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-686 root=/dev/sda3 ro vga=791
initrd /initrd.img-2.6.18-4-686

The vga= part sets resolution.
