+</I>This is usually set by the &quot;vga=&quot; keyword in your kernel parms. Open
+/boot/grub/menu.lst in an editor as root (or temporarily change it to
+world-writable to make the change), and look for the &quot;kernel&quot; line
+corresponding to your booted system. Note the vga= value if there is
+one, and either change it to or add &quot;vga=788&quot; to the end of the line
+(don't include the quotes). Save it, restore the permissions if needed,
+and reboot, and you should see a difference. You may also be able to do
+this in a more user-friendly way from the MCC &quot;Boot&quot; dialog.
+
+You can probably google around to find the complete list of valid vga
+values.
