Hi,
I had the same problem with my TP600 and NM chip. Now I don't use
svgatextmode at all.
Just add a line to /etc/lilo.conf, like
vga 791
This is 1204x768, 16bpp. (see the table below)
Video Modes                     640x480 800x600 1024x768        1280x1024 
8 bpp (256 colors)      769             771             773             775 
16 bpp (64K colors)     785             788             791             794 
32 bpp (16M colors)     786             789             792             795 

Don't forget to use /sbin/lilo.
