I have an i845 board, ALSA sound works just fine on that.

I presume you're using the VESA drivers.  I managed 1024x768x16-bit
with that.  Tinker around with your video RAM and monitor settings,
should help.

That's a problem with XFree/VESA.  I hope the next bunch of XFree86
drivers handle that situation better.
