Grub VGA Mode
You would like to know what Grub VGA Mode you can use ? Default is something like that
Color depth | 640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 -----------------+------------------------------------- 256 (8bit)| 769 771 773 775 32000 (15bit)| 784 787 790 793 65000 (16bit)| 785 788 791 794 16.7 Mill.(24bit)| 786 789 792 795
but with hwinfo --framebuffer
you get an output like this

My notebook has native 1680×1050 so i can use vga=0×369 to boot up with 1680×1050
