Question about which tools to use, bugs, the best way to implement a function, etc should go here. Don't forget to see if your question is answered in the wiki first! When in doubt post here.

Could you let me know the patch for legacy grub that supports the video mode switching? (and where to get it)
Best of all, if you know anything for grub-0.97-i386, that will be great!
Thank you!!!
I think the best way to achieve 2D/3D acceleration would be to generally use Vesa/VBE, but allow the use of modules for video card specifics. It would still work on every pc, but every now on then you could supply the user with driver updates.
