Things are in quite a bit of flux. First, in F12 the mode number I've used
for a long time
didn't work any more, but 'vga=ask' gave a list with a letter index that
would
select the desired mode.
With F13, Grub gives an error message that it can't parse a number if
'vga=ask'
is on the kernel boot line. Haven't yet tried entering one of the old mode
codes.
