vga= is not for vesafb-tng!

this is characters (wide) and lines (long), not resolution!

try 

video=vesafb:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

note the "24" colour depth, and the "60" refresh rate.  Once this works,
you can try higher numbers.

not sure, but I don't think you need this one - ie. choose either
vesafb-tng _or_ nvidia framebuffer...

I'm guessing, but 720x400 may be something the nvidia framebuffer is
determining, and overriding vesafb-tng... dunno...
