Package: grub-pc
Version: 1.98~20100126-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
After upgrading to 1.98~20100126-1 the linux console is completely
blank until X starts. Switching between X and the console just gives
me a static image of whatever X was displaying last.
The previous version, 1.98~20100115-1 works fine.
