I have done exactly what you wrote above, then set in StartupManager 1024x768@16bits and it helped :)

BTW, on my second HP ze2113us with ATI 200M I have tried another solution which also works:
1) Install ubuntu
2) Change the resolution in /etc/usplash.conf to 1024x768
3) sudo update-initramfs -u -k `uname -r`
