Have a look at the Vesa spec as it also has modes for setting the
video mode.  No ideas if it allows the resolution you want.

To save time check out Rhide or SET Editor to see if it can set the
text resolultion you want. If it does then have a look a the vesa mode
it uses.

Some starting URLS:-
1) www.vesa.org may be a good starting point 
2) www.rhide.org

Hope this helps.
