[Bug 699802] Re: error:: no video mode activated

[Mate Kukri]

grub-pc is very much in maintenance mode, no new BIOS hardware is being
made at this point, thus it seems rather difficult to debug this, and
verify a patch for it.

If anyone wants to propose a concrete patch and test it on affected, I
am open to reviewing, but currently the honest thing to do this is close
this as 'Won't Fix'.
