Ubuntu 10.10 Nicer Console

I posted a while ago about changing the resolution of the linux console for my VirtualBox machine.  Year ago (seems like just yesterday) you could hack on “vga=xxx” in order to change the resolution.  Then around Ubuntu 10.04 (maybe even 9.10) there was a new way which didn’t work with VirtualBox at the time. That prompted this:

Now that Ubuntu 10.10 is out and popular, I’ve finally gotten around to running it on my VirtualBox.  Well, it’s changed again, and even easier now to set a better resolution for the console.
