 In /etc/lilo.conf, add the line:
 
-append="video=intelfb:800x600-32@75,accel,hwcursor,vram=8"
+append="video=intelfb:mode=800x600-32@75,accel,hwcursor,vram=8"
 
 This will initialize the framebuffer to 800x600 at 32bpp and 75Hz. The
 framebuffer will use 8 MB of System RAM. hw acceleration of text and cursor
 will be enabled.
 
+Remarks
+-------
+
+If setting this parameter doesn't work (you stay in a 80x25 text-mode),
+you might need to set the "vga=<mode>" parameter too - see vesafb.txt
+in this directory.

 D.  Module options
 
 	The module parameters are essentially similar to the kernel
