I assume you've tried all the modes available to you? From
/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
If you have difficulty converting between hex and decimal, use kcalc or
xcalc to do the conversion for you. However, do know that decimal 788
is hex 0x314. You can start from there and do some simple math to
figure out what's what.
