edit /boot/grub/grub.conf

Add a number off your choice to the "vga=" statement

  Colours   640x480 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 1600x1200
  --+--
  256     |   769     771      773      775       796
  32,768  |   784     787      790      793       797
  65,536  |   785     788      791      794       798
  16.8M   |   786     789      792      795       799

e. g. "vga=791"

Save, reboot & be happy :-)

(I just wrote this in another posting called "Re: Grub Startup
Graphics". Check it out if you have problems)

Another cosmetic issue, if you are booting in textmode (no rhgb):
Edit /etc/sysconfig/init and adjust 
"RES_COL" to your new screen width: RES_COL=100 is ok (will also work
with verbose mode of rhgb) 120 will fit nice to a 17"

Have Fun
