graphics mode while booting

how can i change the graphics mode for the boot process?
am using the libre-linux kernel from jxself's repository and it used to show me a penguin mascot while booting. at some point the graphics mode must have changed, i can't say when that was, but now i see some garbage pixels during boot. later it changes to the correct graphics mode showing the boot messages and login correctly.
Any idea on how it can show the Freedo mascot again?
Have you changed the reso in grub config? Remember to update-grub afterwards if you do.

Try https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Grub#Visual_Configuration .
Shortly:
$ sudo hwinfo --framebuffer
and set the desired resolution in /etc/default/grub , "GRUB_GFXMODE".
P.S.: And update-grub, of course.
thanks for the help!
somehow grub seems to ignore GRUB_GFXMODE.
building and installing grub-2.00 from source [1] it shows the mascot out-of-the-box

You are welcome :-)
My grub doesn's ignore it. Perhaps the version in Trisquel repos is not ready for your videoboard?
