add it to grub. mine looks like this, for 1280x800 at 8 bits:
## additional options to use with the default boot option, but not with the

## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
# defoptions=verbose splash vga=0x0360
now, save, and run:
#sudo update-grub
and reboot, to see the new terminal at your chosen resolution.
