You need XFree86
Check to see if you have installed XFree86 on your machine, and run Xconfigurator. It should set it up after asking about your video hardware. XF86 is available on the install disks.

NAME
vesa - Generic VESA video driver
SYNOPSIS
Section "Device"
Identifier "devname"
Driver "vesa"
...
EndSection
DESCRIPTION
vesa is an XFree86 driver for generic VESA video cards. It can drive most VESA-compatible video cards, but only makes use of the basic
standard VESA core that is common to these cards. The driver supports depths 8, 15 16 and 24.
SUPPORTED HARDWARE
The vesa driver supports most VESA-compatible video cards. There are some known exceptions, and those should be listed here.
CONFIGURATION DETAILS
Please refer to XF86Config(5x) for general configuration details. This section only covers configuration details specific to this driver.
The driver auto-detects the presence of VESA-compatible hardware. The ChipSet name may optionally be specified in the config file "Device"
section, and will override the auto-detection:
"vesa"
The following driver Options are supported:
Option "ShadowFB" "boolean"
Enable or disable use of the shadow framebuffer layer. Default: on.
This option is recommended for performance reasons.
