For VGA the first modes are all the same, so we can use a fixed table. For VESA modes we can get the width and height. But that should be done when setting the mode. > BTW, is the VGA terminal working well?

The menu should support all kinds of screen sizes anyway. For example on the PPC the text screen is really big. -- Marco _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
