VGA is 640x480, so if that's what you really want, video=640x480 can be included
on your bootloader's linu line to force it. It's the same 80x25 mode pre-UEFI
computers all used for BIOS setup. Using video=1024x768 in most cases will get 
the
same mode as nomodeset produces, but without impacting X. If you are using Grub,
you can easily test to see which mode you prefer by typing it in at the end of 
the
linu line after striking the E key at your Grub menu.
