how do i set i915 resolution in grub-pc
Hi!
I installed combined tjener+ltsp-server from >
ftp://ftp.skolelinux.org/cd-squeeze-test-amd64-i386-netinst/debian-edu-amd64-i386-NETINST-1.iso
dated 2011/05/15 iirc on my ASRock AD510PV with Intel onboard-graphics
I tried various setups of /etc/default/grub but always have 1024x768
Resolution on both console and graphical login.
My lcd only supports 800x600 and so that's the resolution i'd like to have.
After 2 Days of googleing i have the following
tjener:~#cat /etc/initramfs-tools/modules
intel_agp
drm
i915 modeset=1
gfxterm
tjener:~#cat /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf
options i915 modeset=1
tjener:~#cat /etc/default/grub
/snip
GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES="915resolution lvm raid"
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX="800x600x32"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i915.modeset=1 driver=intel"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="video=i915:modeset=1"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="video=i915:800x600-32@60:modeset=1"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="video=i915:800x600-32@60,modeset=1"
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="video=i915:800x600-32@60"
snip/
shure i did
#update-initramfs -uk all
#update-grub
each time i changed the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
but though the driver seams to be loaded correctly
tjener:~# lspci -vs 00:02
