From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So, its a bug?
It’s not exactly a bug. It’s just that Linux is extremely verbose and often spits out debug messages for things that are not relevant to your system.
No, it is a bug (I think) because GRUB should display in native resolution and because of a bug can't figure it out and displays in 800x600. It is however only cosmetic.
Its probably just wrong video mode set as message says... But either way who cares about grub resolution
It's all fun and games until you have to repair your system with 1x1 resolution
Morse code tty?
Then just throw your screen and GPU out, for what other reason would we have beepers on mainboards?
Throw the keyboard out too, you can tap with a mouse
Ehh, you could use the power button as well
I never seen that on a PC even in CGA monitor times
