Package: grub2
Version: 1.97+20091115-1
Severity: normal
Grub2 in Debian do not allow the use of "set gfxpayload" option indo
grub.cfg, update-grub command remove it if the configuration is manual.
gfxpayload allow us change the console resolution, but Debian default files
do not have this option to use with.
A possible solution:
1) Into /etc/grub.d/00_header, add "set gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD}"
2) Into /etc/default/grub, add "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=keep"
"keep" is the default option for gfxpayload, it will get the value of "gfxmode"
And now, if we need another resolution, we can edit /etc/default/grub and
put another resolution for the console. Examples:
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=1280x1024
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD=1024x768
After run "update-grub" or "update-grub2", the gfxpayload option will works
correctily.
Or if there are another way to solve this in Debian, let me know.
Thanks
