@cazacugmihai: I can now switch to a tty console on my XPS M1530 after
reinstalling grub2 completely (ie installing grub1 and then reinstalling
grub2). The differences I can see between our configurations is that
GRUB_GFXMODE is commented out in my /etc/default/grub, and grub.cfg has
no 'set gfxpayload=keep' line:
if loadfont /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 ; then
set gfxmode=640x480
insmod gfxterm
insmod vbe
if terminal_output gfxterm ; then true ; else
# For backward compatibility with versions of terminal.mod that don't
# understand terminal_output
terminal gfxterm
fi
fi
I'm pretty sure when I couldn't switch to a tty console I had
GRUB_GFXMODE set. Does it make a difference if you comment GFXMODE out
and run update-grub?
