But if we need to control the VGA resolution before the control goes over to xorg
it can be easily done from the Grub
There are different Grub VGA Modes that can be enabled from the kernel boot up line in Grub
This property can be set with vga=xxx where xxx is the value that denotes different colour depth and screen resolution.
This property is used by editing the kernel boot-up line in Grub
Edit the kernel boot up line when grub screen arrives at the startup
and at the end of the kernel boot up line just add vga=xxx. different values that can replace xxx for different purposes are listed below.
Colour depth | 640x480 | 800x600 | 1024x768 | 1280x1024 | 1400x1050 | 1600x1200 |
8 (256) | 769 | 771 | 773 | 775 | ||
15 (32K) | 784 | 787 | 790 | 793 | ||
16 (65K) | 785 | 788 | 791 | 794 | 834 | 884 |
24 (16M) | 786 | 789 | 792 | 795 |
