80x25 can be achieved at various resolutions.  640x480 -1600x1200, etc. 
I'm trying to figure out in the very least what resolution is being
used.  Ideally I'd like to know the syncings and timings too. 
(everything that goes into a modeline.)

Heck at this point I'd be happy just to find someone who understands the
question, even if they can't answer it.

I may have missed the answer there, in which case, please point out the article to me, but don't say "check forum X."
