The answer is passing a "vga=xyz" parameter to the kernel during grub.
These are called vesa modes, and a list can be found here:

EagleScreen, is this what you were looking for? |

Unfortunately, using a VESA mode (with vga=) has the side-effect of breaking suspend and resume. This is a fairly well-known problem and if it's ever fixed then we'll reconsider it, but for the time being having suspend and resume work by default is more important to us than a high console resolution. Of course you can change this for yourself if you think otherwise. |
