[opensuse] Can't reduce text size at GRUB2+UEFI boot-time console
I've installed opensuse 13.2 in a minimal server config. It boots with GRUB2+UEFI. I've set up text only boot. Currently the console display appears to be 1024x768. That's large for my taste. I want to reduce the text size to take advantage of my 1920x1080 monitor.

Console in grub or Linux? Please be more specific.

Again, in grub or Linux? In grub, go to command mode (press 'c' when in menu) and run "videoinfo". It will show you video modes your BIOS reports.

The complete linux boot sequence. From 'early' to completion. The size of the risplayed grub menu makes no difference to me as long as it's legible.
In grub, go to command mode (press 'c' when in menu) and run "videoinfo". It will show you video modes your BIOS reports. These are the only ones that can be selected in grub.
grub> videoinfo List of supported video mode: Legend: mask/position=red/green/blue/reserved Adapter 'Cirrus CLGD 5446 PCI Video Driver': No info available Adapter 'Bochs PCI Video Driver': No info available Adapter 'EFI GOP Driver': * 0x000 800 x 600 x 32 (3200) Direct color, mask: 8/8/8/8/ pos: 16/8/0/24 0x001 1024 x 768 x 32 (4096) Direct color, mask: 8/8/8/8/ pos: 16/8/0/24 That looks to me like only 800x600 & 1024x768 are available, and that 800x600 is currently selected. So the available modes are ONLY defined by BIOS, and nothind to do with the actual video card's capabilities? As this is booting to UEFI bios, not the h/w BIOS, is there graphic-card info -- in the form of an EFI binary? -- that can be added to the /boot/efi/EFI/... store to turn on additional capabilities? I'm not clear on extending EFI bios yet. LT -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

If you are referring to text on the screen without X running and after having made your boot menu selection, it's no big deal here on any of my 13.2 installations, but they all use Grub, not Grub2. Getting 1920x1080 on a 1920x1080 display can be as simple as including video=1920x1080 in the Grub stanza kernel cmdline, which works for ATI, Intel and NVidia gfxcards. If you don't like the results, there are tools to make resolution changes once you've logged in, including fbset from 13.1 repos and kmscon from later repos. Another option is to leave the resolution as is, and specify a different CONSOLE_FONT in /etc/sysconfig/console. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

You're booting standard BIOS, not UEFI, right?

IOW, what is output from 'grep /proc/cmdline'? The kernel cmdline is always right near the top of Xorg.0.log too.
If I was using Grub2 I'd try changing that GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX to replace vga=0x034c with video=1920x1080@60.
With
grep 1920 /etc/default/grub GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080 GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1920x1080 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" ... video=1920x1080@60"
after grub2-mkconfig
grep 'gfxmode' /boot/grub2/grub.cfg set gfxmode=1920x1080
The console's text size is the same - no change.
The string gfxmode is not to be found on https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt so if you want the framebuffers running 1920x1080 I suggest you get video=1920x1080 onto the kernel cmdline at least once somehow. Just to sample its effect you can edit it in on the fly within your Grub2 menu at runtime. I have no idea why Grub2 seems inept for your installation. In menu.lst stanzas video= gets the job done for all my ATI, Intel and NVidia gfxchips ever since somewhere around 11.3 when openSUSE got its first KMS kernels.

Yes, but once we're past the bootloader menu that difference should be irrelevant.

I know, but kernels normally obey kernel parameters, and your problem is post-Grub2 menu, right?

According to https://wiki.sabayon.org/index.php?title=HOWTO:_Using_Custom_Framebuffer_Res... what you need instead of GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1920x1080 is GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1920x1080x32 or x24 or x16, IOW, bit depth is needed in addition to resolution if you wish a non-VESA mode applied.

This should not have any effect on grub menu - gfxpayload viedo mode is set just before passing control to loaded linux kernel. This mode is not even evaluated by grub until you select menu entry to boot. Could you give some more detailed description of what happens?

I tried at least three times to prod him into a clear explanation of his complaint, but never got it. NAICT, his complaint is normal size 16 text for VESA mode 1024x768 in use on vttys 1-6 is bigger than he wants, and he doesn't like that his display's native non-VESA mode 1920x1080 is not used on them with his Nvidia GT610.

At this point I don't remember the time period when I posted the above. However, in more recent hours, I have been trying to make progress on several fronts WRT Vivid. To that end, I've tried to get re-subscribed via https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub without success, being black-holed by Earthlink, and waiting on follow-up response from grub-devel-owner after replying to his initial response. To answer your immediate question, video=1440x900@60 does currently work for the vttys, and get picked up by Xorg, whether on Grub Legacy cmdline or Grub2 cmdline. http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/Linux/Buntu/ contains varous cmdline iterations and resulting fbset output in the form cmdline2015032#####.txt. Sorting that listing by date you can find and examine which iteration of /etc/default/grub and /boot/grub/grub.cfg each followed, though nothing is indicative whether I edited the cmdline before hitting F10, only the net results. Outputs from vbeinfo and monitor-edid are there too, along with one Xorg.0.log from proper operation. What I've been trying to figure out since is why video=1440x900x## does not work with either GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD or GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX. My current thought is that limitation may be the same as or related to $SUBJECT OP's failure to make 1920x1080 work on his UEFI 13.2 installation, a mode Grub2 cannot use cannot be slipstreamed directly to the kernel. My particular problem seems to have been reported on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1474799&p=9256938#post9256938 5 years ago, and apparently not yet solved. So, my other thought is it may be that the two of us have 16:10 (41cm x 26cm) displays manufactured with the same broken EDID claiming to have a 5:4 mode (1280x1024) as native. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Have you checked if the configuration was actually applied?
If I was using Grub2 I'd try changing that GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX to replace vga=0x034c with video=1920x1080@60.
With
grep 1920 /etc/default/grub GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080 GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1920x1080 GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" ... video=1920x1080@60"
after grub2-mkconfig
grep 'gfxmode' /boot/grub2/grub.cfg set gfxmode=1920x1080
The console's text size is the same - no change.
It is still unfortunately unclear what you are talking about - grub console or linux console - but, assuming you are speaking about linux console - by default it is using efifb driver which as far as I can tell never changes mode it gets from firmware/loader. So it looks logical that attempt to set different mode does not work. Check what framebuffer driver is currently in use with cat /sys/class/graphics/fb0/name -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
