Well when the framebuffer is a module, you pass mode options when loading the module. mode_option exists for uvesafb but I don't know about other framebuffer modules. If I want a framebuffer, I build it into the kernel. You may need to read the driver source to see what it is going to expect. You can read more here about forcing kernel modes http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/KernelModeSetting/ video= is used at the kernel command line. If it is a module, it's usually finding out the option to use when loading the kernel module. I've sometimes had to resort to reading the source code.
