To use the vesafg: line I think you need vesafb-tng compiled in, which
is a patch to the vanilla kernel.  (You get the patch automatically
applied if you use gentoo-sources, but you still have to select it).

without it, I think you have to use vga=xyz ... but if you've already
tried that then don't know why its not working.  Personally I don't use
lilo, so I don't know if your lilo syntax is correct or not...

Also, what video card is in your laptop?

HTH,
