I'm guessing that you are using UEFI. SCFB uses the GOP mode set by loader (or the default one), on my last laptop (an HP840G3) if I leave the bios with the default config for video memory I cannot go higher than 1280x1024, I need to set it to an higher value and then the UEFI firmware provided multiple GOP mode. You can list/change the available mode in loader.efi with the 'gop' command (gop list, gop get etc ...) Cheers, On Fri, 24 Jun 2016 13:24:17 -0400 "Charles W.
