2.6.25 + vga=791

[Hugo Vanwoerkom <hvw59601@care2.com>]

Hi,

In installing linux-image-2.6.25-1-686 I find I can no longer use 
vga=791 on the kernel commandline. I get "undefined videomode number: 
317" that's 791 hex.

I've been using vga=791 on kernels since time immemorial, what's wrong 
with it now?

There is an alternative to that parameter:

but I'd like to know if anybody else using 2.6.25 has had problems with 
the vga= parameter, before I go into unknown territory...
