Did you ever try the frame buffer X server ??? Since your card is
fairly recent, it should work (it only needs a card with a VESA 2.x
BIOS)
and it would give you access to all video modes supported by the
card's
BIOS (you'd have the resolution but not the acceleration AFAIK).

I repeat, I also have a Voodoo Banshee and I had no problem whatsoever 
when installing 7.1. So it must be something specific to your system.
Did you activate VGA IRQ in your BIOS ?
