Howdy,

emerge sys-libs/lrmi

then from a console run:  vbetest

this will display the video modes your graphics card supports.
Note I had differing results running from an xterm, so I suggest
running from a console with X stopped.

You might want to look at using uvesa:

I'm in the middle of getting the new fbsplash stuff installed (didn't
work first try :-) but the higher res console works fine with uvesa
(which is what I really wanted in the first place).


HTH,
Roy
