I've read numerous responses to this questions which simply state the solution as setting the vga=<resolution> parameter on the kernel boot line. However, this has failed me. The setting I have configured is vga=0x31A for 1280x1024. However, it still loads as either 600x480 or 800x600 (I'm not sure which, suffice it to say that it is wrong).

This has led to a related problem in that the cursor ends up below the bottom of the screen. I have to clear the screen regularly to get it to the top.

Why doesn't Xen recognize the boot parameter? Is there a separate configuration file I need to change for this?

Thanks,
Mathew
