Please see that and tell me what is wrong.
I've tried re-compiling my kernel, to change the resolution of the console. Nothing.  How can I change it?

what?
you change it by passing parameters to the kernel
ie vga=
did you read the bootsplash howto?

Interestingly enough, it's vga=0x31A in my grub.conf.

Did you create the initrd for that image yourself or is it one you download?
If so what command did you use to create please? Ta
