Don't you have any values for "GRUB_GFXMODE" or "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX" set in "/etc/default/grub"? You have to set them to the resolution that you want to use. "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT" sets the command line for the regular menu entry and "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX" sets the command line for both the regular and the recovery menu entries. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
