Hi,
Well, perhaps QEMU just doesn't support that mode...
I tried this sequence with exception (set gfxmode=1024x768x32) in VMWare
and it works nicely. You can specify "set gfxmode=1024x768" to auto
detect best color mode.
You can use vbeinfo module to determine available modes.
insmod vbeinfo
vbeinfo
