Hi,
I've got an ATI Radeon 8500 and was able to get my console running at 
1280x1024 at 85Hz with the following:

title=Gentoo Linux
root (hd0,4)
kernel (hd0,4)/boot/bzImage.2.5.72 root=/dev/hda6 video=radeonfb:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm using 2.5.72 so the framebuffer device is 'radeonfb' but in a 2.4 series 
you might try just 'radeon' instead of 'radeonfb' since it got renamed in 
2.5. Don't know about an nvidia card, similar syntax might work, you never 
know.
