This is really obscure, but I thought you might find it interesting. I'm one of the developers with the Open Graphics Project, and we're working on a free VGA implementation. At the moment, the card supports only text modes. No VGA or VESA graphics (yet).

I've tested this by making vbe.c always fail. GRUB2 sanely fall back to text mode. I'm closing the bug. If it's still present in grub2 please contact me
