I got the same problem as above and noticed their was no reply and no fix posted so I'll post my menu.lst and hope you can provide a fix. My display is a 1440 x 900. This is a beautiful splash ans incredibly popular judging form the fanfare you've received on it thus far. thx for all the hard work :)
# menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)
# grub-install(8)...
