it is version 1.98-1 that i'm using (both squeeze and unstable repos).

i checked and /boot/grub/grub.cfg does have the relevant lines:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/01_915resolution ###
insmod 915resolution
915resolution 58 1366 768 32
### END /etc/grub.d/01_915resolution ###

i'll try to find that version from somewhere.

i have commented that line out, but in lenny, screen went to 1366/768
mode already during boot, i.e., before X was started. now with squeeze,
it doesn't.
