just tested that GRUB_GFXMODE= only influences grub2's own resolution in this case
Yes, for kernel you use GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX, but it is exactly the same as vga=. YaST2 - Bootloader - Configure bootloader - Additional kernel parameters. Add video= there. Does it work?
unless video=800x600-16 is given on cmdline
Do you need KMS in KVM? I had nothing but problems with it and simply used nomodeset + selecting resolution in YaST2. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
