i'm using grub (/boot/grub/menu.lst), just add vga=792 (for example) to
the kernel entry and the resolution would be 1024x768, for example: 

kernel	/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-686 root=/dev/sdc1 ro quiet vga=792


Color depth      | 640x480  800x600  1024x768 1280x1024

256        (8bit)|  769      771       773      775
32000     (15bit)|  784      787       790      793
65000     (16bit)|  785      788       791      794
16.7 Mill.(24bit)|  786      789       792      795

i think there are better solutions, but i don't know them ;)
