If vga=791 is not working for you you might try a different one.
In case it's not obvious rows are color depth columns are resolution. ;)

If you have an auto generated grub menu.lst then you should add the
option in the upper part of the file if you want to keep it from
getting nuked in a future upgrade:
## default kernel options for automagic boot options
## If you want special options for specific kernels use kopt_x_y_z
## where x.y.z is kernel version. Minor versions can be omitted.
## e.g. kopt=root=/dev/hda1 ro
## kopt_2_6_8=root=/dev/hdc1 ro
## kopt_2_6_8_2_686=root=/dev/hdc2 ro
# kopt=root=/dev/hda3 ro
To add the vga option the kopt line would then become:
# kopt=root=/dev/hda3 ro vga=791
