This isn't going to be much of a bug report :-(. Attempting to boot 2.5.19 with "vga = 791" in /etc/lilo.conf hangs with a blank black screen right at the point where the display attempts to switch video modes. Works fine for 2.5.18 and prior kernels. Booting 2.5.19 in standard 80x25 text mode works fine also.

I just tried it and it worked for me. Can you send me your config file.
