Hi, > Some boot loaders such as GRUB1 with the OS patch allow you to set a VESA mode right at boot time (maybe GRUB2 has a similar feature?). Mayber you can do something similiar in /etc/default/grub: GRUB_GFXMODE=1280x800x32 GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep First line set grub mode, second line advises it to keep the resolution in linux.
