No no, what I mean is the following: Guess, I want to have a special 
resolution at boot, for example 800x600x32.

Now I need the vga=whatever. To get it, I can look into a list and see, yes,  
it is vga=789.

This is simple. 

But when there is no list available, how can I compute from "800x600x32" to 
the needed result "vga=789"? Is there a way if any, or was (in my example) the 
data "789" just a fixed set/number? 

Hope, I made my question clearer.
