I had this exact same problem. After much twiddling, I found a
workaround.
Make sure you have the sync rates set. The key setting for me was Option
"IgnoreEDID". I have BIOS A32.
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Generic Monitor"
Option "DPMS"
HorizSync 30-70
VertRefresh 50-75
Option "IgnoreEDID"
EndSection
Additionally, you have to turn off the splash screen in
/boot/grub/menu.lst. Find the default boot entry and remove "splash"
from the end of the kernel line.
