According to `vbeinfo` under grub2, the maximum resolution my laptop (or my laptop's BIOS, I have no idea about this) supports is 1024x768. However, in Linux, I got a 1366x768 console by default (without further configuration). That's why I am thinking about insert some modules into grub2 and it may give me a proper console resolution.

I wasn't aware that there are commonly used non-standard resolutions available. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VESA_BIOS_Extensions#Other_commonly_available_m... Did you check by running "sudo hwinfo --framebuffer" too? It shouldn't differ, but perhaps there's something fishy with vbeinfo. - Ralf
