finally I've got to optimum (in my opinion) combination:

title  Gentoo linux (update)
 root (hd0,0)
 kernel /kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r4 real_root=/dev/hda11 
video=vesafb:1024x768-32@72 splash=verbose


But I've got new problem - for some reason KDE (3.4.1) now hangs after 
login doing "initialize peripherals" or something like that... and it 
happens only when I switch to 2.6.12, weird... anybody seen symptoms 
like that? First time since I've switched to 2.6.x kernels I've got 
so many issues with simple kernel upgrade, is there something going 
on I should be aware of?
