Did you tried to find out what resolutions are supported by your graphic card
(e.g. hwinfo --framebuffer)? I only know this tool to get the necessary hex code.
So I don't really know if the vga= option works with uvesafb too.
I have to correct my statement that I am using uvesafb. It seems that I am using
vesafb. This is because I don't want either any additional userspace application
(v86d) nor bootsplash etc.
