sudo avivotool regs crtc1

Comment 8 Piotrek Juźwiak 2011-11-09 18:43:26 UTC 
As a sidenote i must add that the screen was just fine when using HDMI cable with both BIOS or UEFI boot. When using VGA cable (through DVI to VGA converter) normal BIOS looks normal, UEFI is messed up. Would you want me to check that with pure DVI cable (i'd have to buy it tomorrow).
