I'm not sure I understand what you're saying above....
Try the following in /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nomodeset
video=uvesafb:mode_option=$finalresolutionanddepth,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap"
Then run:-
# update-grub
Where $finalresolutionanddepth is something like 1024x768-32 (eg.
800x600-24) depending on what you use on the desktop.
NOTE: this is not the same as as the xrandr instruction you are/were using.
Kind regards
