Public bug reported: So I recently decided to try to install windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10 in UEFI mode and succeeded in doing that. Both system load as the should and everything work perfectly but there is one thing that keeps bothering me and it is grub resolution. Before that I was using dual boot system Ubuntu and Windows in BIOS mode and grub resolution was correct 1366x768 (which is my native resolution) After reinstalling both OS in UEFI mode grub resolution became wrong (which I assume is 640x480) BUT Splash screen resolution on boot and shutdown is CORRECT (1366x768). Only grub boot menu is incorrect.
What I tried: editing sudo gedit /etc/default/grub and uncommenting GRUB_GFXMODE + setting resolution 1366x768 DIDN'T WORK Tried to edit line above + sudo gedit /etc/grub.d/00_header where I add line set gfxpayload=keep under line set gfxmode=${GRUB_GFXMODE} DIDN'T WORK. So I consider that to be a bug cause again when I had both systems installed in BIOS mode my resolution was correct in grub menu. I am running ASUS laptop K53SV intel HD 3000 + Nvidia Optimus GeForce GT (bumblebee installed) + xorg edgers ppa (so all drivers are up-to date) ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: grub-efi 2.00-7ubuntu11 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.7.0-4.12-generic 3.7.0-rc7 Uname: Linux 3.7.0-4-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Dec 4 10:26:44 2012 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-11-30 (3 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release amd64 (20121017.5) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: grub2 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug quantal running-unity third-party-packages ** Summary changed: - Wrong grub-efi resolution during boot menu seleection + Wrong grub-efi resolution during OS boot menu selection ** Description changed: - So I recently decided to try install windows 7 and ubuntu 12.10 in UEFI mode and succeeded in doing that.
