I reported here on 5/18/2008 that I couldn't use vga=791 with the Debian 2.6.25 kernel, but *could* with the 2.6.25 from kernel.org.
Same issue with 2.6.26: vga=791 gets "undefined video mode". Yet it works fine with 2.6.26 from kernel.org, so it is clearly a Debian issue.
In the 2 months that have expired noone has been able to shed light on this Bug#481063.
Too bad. For me 2.6.26-1-686 is unusable.
What response did you get from the Debian Kernel Team <debian-kernel(at)lists.debian.org> ? I see that only one member of
the team responded to your bug report, so maybe another member or
some other knowledgeable subscriber to that list could be of help.
Indeed. I can try posting to the debian-kernel list again, I tried that before and got no answer.
What do you get from running 'hwinfo --framebuffer' ? The hex
equivalent of decimal 791 is 0x317 -- did you try that as well?

And I tried vga=0x0317 and get "undefined videomode".
