Derive the > number from video mode information if you really need it I couldn't find terribly clear documentation of "keep". Isn't the point that if you say "keep" then the mode is carried over to the booted kernel, and if you don't then it isn't? If my understanding is correct then that would mean that there's no point setting up vid_mode to match gfxpayload unless "keep" is given. -- Colin Watson [cjwatson@ubuntu.com]
