Theme Not Loading Using Slackware 15.0 & Grub 2.06

[0pLuS0]

Hello,

I had this working in Slackware 14.2 without any problems, so I'm lost as to why it won't load in Slackware 15.0.

Both versions of Slack I've been using Grub 2.06

I downloaded the latest theme version here grub2-themes-2021-12-05 and I installed it as;

sudo ./install.sh -b -t tela

Here is the contents of /boot/grub...

~ pts/0 root /boot/grub >ls fonts grub.cfg grubenv locale themes x86_64-efi

~ pts/0 root /boot/grub/themes/tela >ls background.jpg dejavu_sans_24.pf2 info.png terminal_box_c.png terminal_box_nw.png terminal_box_w.png terminus-18.pf2 dejavu_sans_12.pf2 dejavu_sans_32.pf2 select_c.png terminal_box_e.png terminal_box_s.png terminus-12.pf2 theme.txt dejavu_sans_14.pf2 dejavu_sans_48.pf2 select_e.png terminal_box_n.png terminal_box_se.png terminus-14.pf2 dejavu_sans_16.pf2 icons select_w.png terminal_box_ne.png terminal_box_sw.png terminus-16.pf2

After installing the theme, I also ran at a later time; grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg here is the output of that from the terminal;

~ pts/0 root /boot >grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I'm attaching the /etc/default/grub file so you can see it's correct.

I found out by adding to /etc/default/grub;

GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES="all_video"

The theme now loads, BUT the resolution is only 1024x763... :(

I also tried changing GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080,auto to GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080x32 but it didn't work.

The grub cli shows with videoinfo that 1920x1080x32 is supported.

Since updating to Slackware 15.0 I have to use nouveau while waiting on Slackware build scripts for the nvidia drivers.

Could this resolution issue have to do with nouveau?

THANKS

I finally have the nvidia drivers installed, wasn't sure if this had anything to do with it, and it's still the same.

I still can't get the theme to run at 1920x1080.

I don't understand what the changes are from Slackware 14.2 to Slackware 15.0 that would cause this issue.

hmm

P.S. After making this post, I went back and ran the commands this time as;

./install.sh -b -s 1080p -t tela -i color

This still didn't work, the theme is still appearing as 1024x768. 😮‍💨
