Had the same problem with my Cardinal VGA732.  The solution is actually
rather easy - you must first manually set the scan rate of your monitor
to approximately 31.5 KHz using whatever utility came with your card 
(possibly vmode?).  If you look in your manual, you'll see that the mode
for 800x600x256 is mode 0x30.  Setting to this mode should solve the
prob...if you have vmode, just type "vmode 30".
