When you run vbeinfo, grub reports a preferred resolution at the end.
Could it be that grub is trying to switch to this resolution, failing if it is 
not one of the supported VESA modes?
16:9 and 16:10 modes are usually not among those, yet a great deal of (if not 
almost all) modern computers have such screens...
