    Your xorg.conf is not getting saved over reboots or getting restored from a backup or you have passed VGA options with the kernel parameters in the grub.

    Check those settings. Specially the /boot/grub/menu.lst for kernel parameters at boot time.

    thanks machan... i'll try

    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64 ro root=UUID=27d8acd6-548d-4475-82f1-92fcfc86d27e rhgb quiet
    initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.x86_64.img
    savedefault
    boot

    :( what should i do man? i think that savedefault is for setting that selection as the default. isn't it?


    13.3.33 savedefault
    — Command: savedefault num

    Save the current menu entry or num if specified as a default entry. Here is an example:

    default saved
    timeout 10

    title GNU/Linux
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1 vga=ext
    initrd /boot/initrd
    savedefault

    title FreeBSD
    root (hd0,a)
    kernel /boot/loader
    savedefault

    With this configuration, GRUB will choose the entry booted previously as the default entry.
    You can specify `fallback' instead of a number. Then, next fallback entry is saved. Next fallback entry is chosen from fallback entries. Normally, this will be the first entry in fallback ones.
