Which means that you have VESA mode.

You could try to add those IDs to the driver(s) (ie. the Intel GART
driver, and the Intel Extreme graphics driver).
However, since you only have DVI out, the chances aren't good that it
will just work then (I have a DVI card for my Intel G3 series, but
didn't find the time/interest to work on that yet, since my monitor
manages to show a perfect image with VGA).
