I was disappointed to find only a minimal set of very low-res framebuffer
modes listed on my system, too, so if there's some solution I'm certainly
interested.

I'm using a different video card -- 3D Labs Permedia 2 -- and after
discovering that Xfree 4.x drivers for this card don't work, I didn't even
bother to ask anyone why the kernel doesn't seem to support it.... Although,
in fact, some very old Ms-dos programs that set various vesa modes without
any special drivers work brilliantly.
