Personally vesa works for my use. People say that it is slow but I
have yet to experience a "fast" display vis-avis vesa. Even the laptop
I am on is actually using vesa setting and I find no difference
between this or i810 setting, which is actull the chip set in this
laptop.

X_COLOR_DEPTH at 24 would be better. Lower the number worse the
display rendering.
