The biggest problem with the VGA driver is just that - it's VGA-standard
graphics, meaning very limited resolution and colour depth. It will work
on pretty much any system, but only because it's the absolute lowest
common denominator.

The generic VESA driver might also be worth investigating - like VGA, it
should work on most hardware by virtue of being an old standard, but
supports higher resolutions and colour depths. I've never used it myself
though, so can't offer any advice.

Information on both should be available somewhere on the Xorg or XFree86
websites.
