From the i810 manpage:

       The  driver  makes use of the video BIOS to program video modes for the
       830M and later.  This limits the video modes that can be used to  those
       provided  by the video BIOS, and to those that will fit into the amount
       of video memory that the video BIOS is aware of.

So, have you tried some rather low resolutions with low colordepth (like 
640x480 in 8bpp) as well? If something like that worked you could try higher 
res and higher colordepths.
