If you can try this using the text mode then you can do the following steps that will help you out to change the resolution of your command line. For that you need to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst. You can edit this file using any of the text editors you are having. I use the vim for editing
Code:
sudo vim /boot/grub/menu.lst
You can find the kernel block that looks somewhat like this:
Code:
# (0) Arch Linux
title Arch Linux
root (hd2,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/1069fde9-8696-49a8-bbec-b8f35458f4d9 ro
initrd /boot/kernel26.img
There you can find the value of vga that you want. There you can put the value as “vga=795”. This will make your resolution to start with the 1280x1024.
