Do you mean you have 1 Mb VRAM on the card? Then it can't do
better then 800x600x16 bpp (800x600x2 / 1024^2 = 0.92 Mb.)

You might also want to check /etc

X is now running, but it seems to be ignoring options. It's a Diamond
stealth vram (#124), which is an S3. I've set it for 432 under 8 bits,
and 32 under 16 (1mb vram). But it seems to insist that the higher
density modes don't exist. It's startup messages (the ones that are
left) annnouce
