[Bug 454993] Re: vga=799 is a deprecated boot option
Today i've spent a lot of time to work around this: first of all, i have Jaunty64 with 1.96 (no newer version available) and Karmic Lucid with 1.98. The problem is due to Jaunty config: - at first, this distro was using grub-legacy, then grub2. Problem is that os-prober continue to find menu.list of grub1 (clearly a bug) and dont go ahead when running grub-mkconfig. - so, as i don't want to go back with grub1, i've removed/purged grub* then reinstalled grub2 to be sure there is no more conflicts with grub-legacy. This have been done with Jaunty and Karmic, as they have had grub-legacy on first installation, Lucid is a clean install with grub2 only. - vga=xxx removed from /etc/default /grub (jaunty) - then grub-mkconfig and update-grub And again, this deprecated vga=xxx, is back due to grub 1.96 Only one thing: please bring grub2 updates to Jaunty. -- vga=799 is a deprecated boot option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 454993] Re: vga=799 is a deprecated boot option
grub-installer doesn't add it automatically. The user must have this configured from GRUB Legacy days, or otherwise manually in /etc/default/grub. Maybe we should filter this out, or automatically convert it to gfxpayload; it's not high-priority for now though because the kernel can't quite deal with this now that grub2 uses the 32-bit boot protocol. I'm going to try to get this fixed for Lucid. ** Package changed: grub-installer (Ubuntu) = grub2 (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- vga=799 is a deprecated boot option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 454993] Re: vga=799 is a deprecated boot option
Fresh Karmic server install on Saturday evening, no legacy except for home. Also no modifying any grub settings, I'm afraid. The installer CD put the -server kernel in (I happened to have the server CD on my desk), after the install I changed into ubuntu-desktop and generic kernel. That and a my own custom kernel both got the vga option added without any manual intervention. -- vga=799 is a deprecated boot option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/454993 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
