The line should read VGA=791 or VGA=0x317
Here is what I use
append = "apm=on apm=power-off ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66 hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi
max_scsi_luns=1"
VGA= 0x31A
Per
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt
and
/usr/share/doc/lilo/Manual.txt.gz
vga=<mode> alters the VGA mode set at startup. The values normal ,
extended , ask or a decimal number are recognized. (See also "Booting
kernel images from a file".)
:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)
