OK, I set those three options, recompiled the kernel, and ...

pcmcia-cs aborts on the make clean install iso.  :-(

So, I turned off pcmcia in the .config, and tried again.

Then I make a new ISO with vga=773, and it works great in VMware4!

However, Tux (the standard logo, not the DL penguin with horns) stays at
the top of the screen and doesn't go away, wasting viewable space.  How
can I get rid of that?

Also, vga=773 is 256 colors.  Is there ANY reason to go higher?  Is
there any software on DL that would use more colors?
