This is an old problem because the VESA_800x600 Mode uses 4 bit color depth 
which ATI doesn't support.
But maybe you can use vidcontrol MODE_261
Besides the ATI problem I can't use the SC_PIXEL_MODE any more in -current. I 
think some time ago it has be broken when the higher resolution support has 
been added.
