Quoting /usr/src/linux/Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt:

So the table for the Kernel mode numbers are:

    | 640x480  800x600  1024x768 1280x1024
- ----+-------------------------------------
256 |  0x301    0x303    0x305    0x307   
32k |  0x310    0x313    0x316    0x319   
64k |  0x311    0x314    0x317    0x31A   
16M |  0x312    0x315    0x318    0x31B

788 is 0x314, so do the math and try each one of these and see what
happens.  If you have trouble doing the math, use kcalc or xcalc and it
can do the conversion for you just by clicking on the "Decimal" and
"Hex" radio buttons.
