what is your monitor setting?  if you are using the vesa
standard, you can check for available modes by using

	aux/vga -m vesa -p

some graphics cards don't work (well) in vesa mode.
some card only work in vesa mode.

so you will need to set your monitor environment
variable to try a non-vesa mode.  it's difficult to
guess what would work on your hardware.  a good
start may be 1280x1024, but it's difficult to guess.
