here's what I do: 1. sudo apt-get install hwinfo 2. sudo hwinfo --framebuffer 3. I get something like this: Mode 0x031b: 1280x1024 (+5120), 24 bits 4. Then I pick my desired resolution and: sudo gedit /etc/default/grub and add the desired mode into this line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" like this: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" vga=0x031b" then sudo update-grub2 5. also to show the splash longer than 1 or 2 seconds I add FRAMEBUFFER=y in this file: sudo gedit /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash Save the file and exit, then: sudo update-initramfs -u I have no need to use the uvesafb or something like this. But the problem is that 1280x1024 and lower resolutions show properly,but the logo is centered and I get a ~1cm vertical line on the right, and if I set like 1620x1200 then the logo is ugly and I get flickering and some text like it was in alpha2 or beta1 releases. I've ataching some photos with different resolutions. Hope it will help to solve this bug.
