Interesting; sure enough, there's the 2048x1536 resolution that shows up in the plymouth log, and 1680x1050 does not appear in the vbeinfo list. So it looks like you're going to end up with a stretched GRUB menu no matter what, because there are no widescreen 16:10 modes in the list. That leaves two questions: - why does the plymouth drm driver not work on your card? - why does the nouveau framebuffer pick up the resolution passed by GRUB, without cross-checking it against EDID? These are probably both bugs that warrant further investigation. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
