Everything works perfectly out of the box, no configuration required whatever. I installed on an encrypted partition via the alternate x64 image from a usb stick. When I boot, the following text line displays on an otherwise empty screen: error: no video mode activated I assume this is from grub? The machine displays this for a few seconds then boots normally, so I must admit this is purely a cosmetic issue. However as I will be starting my machine in front of clients (no suspend or hibernate on an encrypted partition thankyou!) I'd rather get rid of it. I've found similar issues on other posts/forums but no solutions. Any ideas? **** WARNING **** User IQ less than recommended minimum. Replace user and try again.

by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ] About the knowing... I wish I knew what I don't know...:) Well, it's not a biggie, just that I grew accustomed to having that menu at boot time, I used to have it on Ubuntu 11.04 and on Fedora (3 to 17) before, nice to just have it there to be able to select Recovery Mode if I screw up something tinkering with the system. But if I can't fix it, I guess I can live with unveiling it with the shift key. The victory dance will have to wait, I did the mod as you said and ran the update-grub2 command, but no joy, the screen is still blank (black). It does have an effect though. If I change it to 20, the time between the BIOS sequence disappears and the splash screen comes up increases accordingly.
