It's very likely I am, because until you wrote this email I'd never heard of KMS. *Now* I understand the role of nomodeset. As long as I have your attention, I'm curious about the following: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="noquiet nosplash nomodeset text" Would the preceding be the best way to try to have my computer boot up to 25x80 raw text, show me every darn boot message, and not keep switching resolutions in the middle of the boot? Basically, I want my bootup and my Ctrl+Alt+F3 screens to look like they're made with 1991 MS-DOS.
