How to change grub resolution? Tried GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768 - didnt work. And there is no vbeinfo, videoinfo grub commands
To use that option, I think you also have to change GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
to GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="gfxterm"
.
gfxterm
used to be the default, but it was changed to console
to avoid boot problems e.g. on SeaBIOS:

Tried, didnt work. “gfxterm” just makes grub graphical.
Ok. I got it working. Steps to fix it for others:
(1) GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="gfxterm"
indeed needed.
(2) To make GRUB_GFXMODE
executing you need to create folder /boot/grub2/fonts
and copy there /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2
file
(3) To make grub command line find videoinfo command you need to install grub2-efi-x64-modules package (dunno why it is not installed by default) and copy /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi
folder to /boot/grub2/
Done. Now you can change resolution in grub.
