i've had good luck with the supermicro x7sla motherboard,
which supports 1600x1200x16, and i use an ancient ECS IC890GXM-A
with this video device @ 1600x1200x16
1.5.0: vid 03.00.00 1002/9714 10 0:d0000008 268435456 1:0000b001 256
2:fddf0000 65536 5:fdc00000 1048576
Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI RS880 [Radeon HD 4290]
there are also 1920x1440 modes available, but my monitor does support
them.
i'm running the atom nix kernel now, but the atom pc and pcpae
kernels work as well.
by the way, i can never remember motherboard models, so dmi(8)

is a big help.
