Perhaps... After it's booted run X config and see what it'll go for?
Then you end up with somethings like this in your xorg.conf
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 16
Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
It may be that you have to boot into the lower res but can get higher
res after modules are loaded? Or modify initrd to include a needed
module?
