Disable auto resolution

Not sure where to post this. I have set my screen resolution in menu.lst under /boot/grub. When i boot the resolution is set by grub but after that automatically set again causing a unnecessary delay. Is it possible to disable this feature and how?

Re: Disable auto resolution

I'm not sure, but are you talking about KMS? What graphics driver are you using? Can you post your kernel command line?2

Re: Disable auto resolution

Yeah i think KMS is setting the resolution again even though it's already set to 1600x900 by grub.

Is this what you meant by kernel command line: kernel /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/sda3 roi elevator=noop pcie_aspm=force logo vga=0x037f ?

Yup, that's what I meant by the kernel command line.
What graphics driver are you using? You can try disabling KMS but e.g. Intel needs it for X to work.

Re: Disable auto resolution

Yeah i'm running intel i7 and just followed this (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … Setting.29) guide. Its still slower then using the vga kernel command.

Is there some way to tell KMS what resolution to use so it doesn't create a delay?
