First, in F12 the mode number I've used for a long time didn't work any more, but 'vga=ask' gave a list with a letter index that would select the desired mode. With F13, Grub gives an error message that it can't parse a number if 'vga=ask' is on the kernel boot line. Haven't yet tried entering one of the old mode codes.
