Ok, thanks guys.
I checked with Linux to confirm and only had 1024x768, 800x600 & 640x480
modes available. Crazy how other video card vendors offer 3 times or
greater number of VESA modes on their graphics cards compared to Intel.
I used two methods in Linux: vga=0x9999 and sudo hwinfo --framebuffer.
Details here:

Seeing 0x0x0 for Intel video cards in syslog and not for the other graphic
card vendors gave me impression that something was wrong with VESA driver.
