mabawsa, thanks for your reply!

Now I found my way trough this...
First I blacklisted vga16fb, and then uvesafb started working but sadly loaded after plymouth, so I seen the text mode splash on a high res terminal at the top-left corner... then I removed uvesafb from the modules file, and put instead in the video= kernel parameter and that work's fine, even when I removed the blacklist from vga16fb...

So the solution that works for me:
install v86d
edit /etc/default/grub and add video=uvesafb:mode_option=1280x800-32,mtrr=3,scroll=ywrap after splash in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT line.

Thanks!
