Unfortunatly not for me :(.

I've installed a new system and upgraded to grub2 also, now I have 160 columns and 64 lines :(.

I set the parameter in grub.cfg but that did not bring me back to a console with 25 lines and 80 columns.

Also i specified the vga=normal kernel parameter, also no change.

Does anybody have a idea what elese I can do to get back to a normal console or how to stop the framebuffer?

Thanks and kind regards,
