If Legacy boot, Arrandale GPU supports 1366x768, the same as resolution of screen, higher than 1024x768;
If UEFI boot, Arrandale GPU supports 1024x768 at max, lower than resolution of screen, with graphical interface stretched horizontally.
I would like so do UEFI Grub2 and rEFInd.
However, UEFI Grub2 and rEFInd cannot load CsmVideoDxe.efi or BiosVideo.efi.
Ask
Is there a Generic EFI Video Driver to make all bootloader x64 to achieve that?
At least, supports to make UEFI Grub2 and rEFInd use higher resolutions from CSM or Legacy Mode, such as 1366x768, the same as resolution of screen, higher than 1024x768.
This issue may be valid/live, but you're clearly not going to get answers here. The edk2-discuss mailing list is potentially a better place. Keyword being "potentially".
Situations of

In order to avoid graphical interface stretched horizontally, teams of
CloverBootloader
have developedCsmVideoDxe.efi
and teams ofOpenCore
have developedBiosVideo.efi
, used to makeArrandale GPU
loaded in the way of being loaded by CSM or Legacy Mode ,under UEFI_Mode, so graphical interface of UEFI can use higher resolutions from CSM or Legacy Mode, such as 1366x768, the same as resolution of screen, higher than1024x768
