In Microsoft Windows 95 the default "compatibility" display resolution was 640x480 using VESA standards. Later in Windows 98 the new lowest default was 800x600 using VESA standards. These "safe mode" display resolutions were a fallback if no video driver specific for the system video adapter was installed. These are the best known VESA display standards.In Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 display properties:*Select Display Adapters from the Select Hardware Type dialog box.*Select Standard Display Adapter (VGA) from the device list, then click OK. The video supports vesa many modes.

It can drive most VESA-compatible video cards, but only makes use of the basic standard VESA core that is common to these cards. The driver supports depths 8, 15 16 and 24.The default graphics driver is vesa (package xf86-video-vesa), which handles a large number of chipsets but does not include any 2D or 3D acceleration. If a better driver cannot be found or fails to load, Xorg will fall back to vesa. Here is an example for a GRUB stanza, I grabbed out of my /boot/grub/menu.lst": title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-4-k7 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-k7 root=/dev/hde2 ro vga=791 initrd /initrd.img-2.6.18-4-k7You could also have it look like this: title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-4-k7 root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-4-k7 root=/dev/hde2 ro vga=0x317 initrd /initrd.img-2.6.18-4-k7
