I've tried vga=791 (1024x768x16, my normal resolution), vga=788 (800x600x16, a lower resolution), vga=770 (800x600x4, the lowest bit depth), and vga=768 (640x400x8, the lowest resolution) all to no avail.
I get this:
You passed an undefined mode number.
Press <RETURN> to see video modes available. <SPACE> to continue or wait 30 secs
Video adapter: VESA VGA
MODE: COLSxROW:
0 0F00 80x25
1 0F01 80x50
etc.
Alright, using this HOWTO <http:// www.ubuntuforum s.org/showthrea d.php?t= 258484> I figured out how to do what I THINK you're asking. Please correct me if I interpretted incorrectly.

Enter mode number or 'scan':
Nothing seems to work.
