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 uncommented GRUB_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)
