I have a Asus EEE PC 1005P which I installed a Command-line system on using the Alternate Installer CD of Ubuntu Lucid Lynx. Altough I think this is a general linux and grub2 question. I do not have (or want) the X Window System installed.
I want to change my console screen resolution (not inside X) to 1024x600. But it isn't reported when I use vbeinfo inside grub:
grub> vbeinfo
VBE info: version: 3.0 OEM software rev: 1.0
total memory: 8128 KiB
List of compatible video modes:
Legend: P=Packed pixel, D=Direct color, mask/pos=R/G/B/reserved
0x112: 640 x 480 x 32 Direct, mask: 8/8/8/8 pos: 16/8/0/24
0x114: 800 x 600 x 16 Direct, mask: 5/6/5/0 pos: 11/5/0/0
0x115: 800 x 600 x 32 Direct, mask: 8/8/8/8 pos: 16/8/0/24
0x101: 640 x 480 x 8 Packed
0x103: 800 x 600 x 8 Packed
0x111: 640 x 480 x 16 Direct, mask: 5/6/5/0 pos: 11/5/0/0
Configured VBE mode (vbe_mode) = ox101

Any ideas on how I can set the console resultion like I want it?
