My default resolution might be to high and consequently the text is much to small. I managed to increase the resolution for GRUB menu But still struggling with TTY.
I tried:
- add
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=1024x768
to/etc/default/grub
as described here: with no effect - Additionally add
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"
as described here. The effect was that I boot into a black screen with blinking cursor. I was basically able to log in via tty (however, multiple times the screen switched back to the blinking cursor). After I uncommentedGRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nomodeset"
I was able to access Ubuntu GUI. But the TTY was really larger.
So it would be great if I could increase TTY and be able to access the Ubuntu GUI (GNOME, Unity?).
I have dell precision 3561 laptop running Ubuntu 21.10 (dual boot with win10)
- Display: 15,6" IPS (3840 x 2160)
- Graphic: NVIDIA T600, 4GB nvidia-driver-510
Terminus
and largest available font. On external monitor you can now work quite good. On the laptop it is still way to small but acceptable. Basically, I think some approach with resolution would be better here. – as5 Mar 08 '22 at 14:04
