 That may not be possible for the vesa driver (see the vesa(4) man page)
 as it only accesses the basic vesa-compliant hardware.  Why not use the
 sis (SiS) driver?  see man sis(4)

Because It is not working with my SiS672 chip. I have a driver, but it is not 
working on Etch. 
So I must decide Etch or 1280x800. :(

But I haven't seen any thread of you asking for SiS help.  Perhaps start
a new thread with SiS in the title and give details and what errors you
get to mean that it doesn't work.

Doug.

Glibc? (SiS671/ SiS672 driver on Etch) - this thread was about it.

This thread was apparently about the vesa driver, not the SiS driver.
Glibc is the GNU C library (the fundamental system library), not the SiS driver.
