low resolution after grub2

I have Fedora 21 XFCE x64 running on a laptop with dual graphics: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation 4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:0416] (rev 06) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GK104M [GeForce GTX 870M] [10de:1199] (rev ff) Grub2 is displaying full 1920x1080 resoltuion -- but as soon as I run of the kernel options, it switches to BIOS resolution (text mode) and runs like that for a few seconds (non-"quiet" spits out a bunch of init/kernel messages) -- and only later switches to a full graphics mode again. How do I make it stay in high resolution mode all the time?? What I've tried so far: * checked that grub2 has "set gfxmode=auto" and "set gfxpayload=keep" * tried booting without initrd entry -- in the past, that used to boot kernel in current grub resolution and show a number of penguins. Now it's just text.. * tried booting with and without plymouth ("rhgb" option in kernel line, and yum-removed plymouth* with regenerating initramfs by "dracut -f") Some more info: bumblebee and nvidia driver are installed to run the nvidia card -- everything works great in X current kernel 4.1.5-100.fc21.x86_64 Not sure who to file a bug against -- grub2? kernel? etc?
