One of the computers I just attached to my KVM switch doesn't have

Maybe change the video mode on the kernel command line if using KMS. Append something like video=1024x768-24@60m, for instance, to the grub.conf. The first four values and separators should be obvious, the m adds margins. See Documentation/fb/modedb.txt for complete documentation.
