Replacing the wifi card in your laptop probably isn't an option. Most laptops are programmed to freak out and refuse to boot if you do so, due to FCC regulations. Weird workarounds like disconnecting the detect pin until it boots have been done, but won't work with modern PCIE cards as far as I know.
Using a USB or other kind of external card is okay of course.

vga_setchipset
vga_setchipset(3) Svgalib User Manual vga_setchipset(3)
NAME
vga_setchipset - force chipset
SYNOPSIS
#include <vga.h>
void vga_setchipset(int chipset);
DESCRIPTION
Force detection of a chipset (when chipset detection fails). vga_setchipset(VGA) can be useful if the chipset specific stuff or the SVGA
detection stuff gives problems.
However, at first the automatic detection should work well, and if not a specific chipset can be forced from /etc/vga/libvga.config.
Because of that, void vga_setchipset(int chipset) should probably never be used by applications. If used nevertheless, it should be called
directly before vga_init(3).
As of now the following values are defined for chipset:
UNDEFINED
This is the default and specifies autodetection.
VGA A plain VGA card, not that the SVGA must behave like an ordinary SVGA card then which will probably mean it is in an ordinary
(25x80) textmode.
ET4000 Tseng ET4000/ET4000W32(i/p) cards.
CIRRUS Cirrus Logic GD542x/3x cards.
TVGA8900
Trident TVGA 8900C/9000 (and possibly also 8800CS/8900A/B) cards.
OAK Oak Technologies OTI-037/67/77/87 cards.
EGA An ordinary EGA card. The notes about VGA apply.
S3 An S3 base card.
ET3000 Tseng ET3000 cards.
MACH32 A card (from ATI or not) based on the ATI Mach32 chipset.
GVGA6400
A Genoa(?) GVGA6400 card.
ARK ARK Logic ARK1000PV/2000PV cards.
ATI An ATI SVGA (VGA Wonder and friends) card. This does not (necessarily) include the newer cards (usually called Mach something).
ALI An ALI2301 based card.
MACH64 A card using the ATI Mach64 chipset. Support is not complete.
CHIPS Chips and Technologies chipsets 65525, 65535, 65546, 65548, 65550, and 65554 (usually in laptops).
