When gentoo boots grub display only kernel selection on the screen, hitting "Enter" there is not kernel line scrolling,
only the login screen after few seconds: graphical login, user and password.
Which parameter controls it. is it grub?

In /etc/default/grub
...
#GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=""
GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768x32
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep

framebuffer settings in the kernel configuration under "Device Drivers" -> "Graphics support" -> "Support for frame buffer devices."
is build IN.

Enable the EFI frame buffer and rebuild the kernel. You should probably 
also use the native resolution of your monitor GRUB_GFXMODE. And also 
use "auto" as a fallback. For my 1440p display, I use:

GRUB_GFXMODE=2560x1440x32,auto

Thanks, that solved the issue.
