So, my first question is: what is needed to force SeaBIOS/SeaVGABIOS to display a resolution of 1024x768 instead of 640x480 when in "text mode" and "video mode"?
Sure, it's possible to filter the list of modes, but that doesn't guarantee the software using the vgabios behaves accordingly ...
Could you give some pointers on how to do that? Is there a hard-coded selector for the default 640x480 mode?
Probably it's hardcoded somewhere (not seabios) with the expectation that it is a safe fallback and works on all devices.
or you mean that I should simply delete the modes I don't want to use?
Simply deleting should be easiest for creating a test build to see whenever it has the desired effect or not.
take care, Gerd
