Easiest way is to edit lilo.conf and change the line
vga=xxx (probly 788)   tovga=normal  and run 'lilo to make the 
change.

  That way, if you can't make up you're mind like me ;), it's easy to 
re-enable it.

That's my kind of solution, but I'm using Grub, and replacing vga=788
with vga=normal didn't do the whole job. It starts in text mode but shortly
after init starts it switches to graphical. Similar behavior on shutdown,
except that it goes graphical right away.
