Title:
  GRUB2 fails to set resolution

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  1) Release: ubuntu 9.10
  2) grub-pc version: 1.97~beta4-1ubuntu3

  3) I found that grub2 detects monitor resolution and creates specific /etc/grub.d/00_header to support it in terminals (Ctrl+Alt+F1,2,3, ...). It works perfectly on Acer Aspire 5315 with Intel GM965 graphic card and 1280x800 screen.
  But on my desktop widescreen with Radeon 4870 and 1680x1050 resolution file /etc/grub.d/00_header is empty and default 640x480 mode looks ugly.
  3) I request support for 1680x1050 mode in grub2 and terminals.
