пишет: Hello List mates,
Now that new laptops and motherboards have switched to UEFI it is essential that GOP should be supported. Does any one know that Grub2-EFI for openSUSE 13.2 will add GOP support in the Yast Boot Loader?
At the moment most people must add this manually to grub.cfg:
Please show your grub.cfg as generated by system (before your changes).
insmod efi_gop
it already does it by default
if [ x\$feature_all_video_module = xy ]; then insmod all_video else insmod efi_gop insmod efi_uga ...
insmod efi_uga insmod font
if loadfont ${prefix}/unicode.pf2 then insmod gfxterm set gfxmode=auto set gfxpayload=keep terminal_output gfxterm fi
Any thoughts?
If you explain your problem in some more details ... efi_gop is already loaded by default.
This doesn't apply to me as I know that GOP is included in the grub.cfg. It was a recommendation from the Archlinux wiki website.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GRUB2#Advanced_configuration
This page is hard to follow - it mixes up manual grub.cfg creation and grub-mkconfig.
The openSUSE user on the forum had a problem booting his Toshiba with a Radeon 7670M card with Grub2-EFI. So he used rEFind bootloader manager to boot 13.1 to resolve the scattered image by enabling GOP.
I think this could have been resolved with the Yast2 Boot Loader.
His laptop:
Toshiba Satellite L845-SP4105LA - CPU: Core i7 i7-3632QM - AMD Radeon HD7670M 1GB - Chipset Mobile Intel HM76 Express - 14" 1366 x 768
- Dual boot, EFI mode. Windows 8.1 x64 - 1TB Disk, ALL FORMATED, no recovery nor OEM partitions..

What is absolutely unclear from this thread - is grub menu screen corrupted or not. Anyway, author seems to be satisfied with rEFIt and removed grub, so no way to investigate it further. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
