in order to get the higher resolutions, you should
probably install the port

	/usr/ports/sysutils/915resolution

which redefines the bios modes.
In my case (Dell Latitude X1) i run it as

	#--- set 1280 resolution on video
	/usr/local/bin/915resolution 5c 1280 768

you should probably change the 768 to 800 if that's your
screen height.
