Title:
  can't boot headless

Status in Mythbuntu:
  Invalid
Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Trying to boot mythbuntu 10.04 without monitor connected does not
  work.  I never get a ping reply.  When I connect my monitor after
  booting, there is no signal being sent to it.  If I leave my monitor
  connected while booting, everything boots normally and I can remove my
  monitor and it continues to work properly.

  Fedora 12 had same issue, I was able to aleviate this by entering
  vga=xxx in the kernel parameters.  However, with grub2 I am unable to
  see how to do this.  I did find this entry in /boot/grub/grub.cfg:
  "set gfxmode=640x480", but this does not appear to do the same thing.
