Set the video mode to 1920x1080 (HD) or higher in the ASM kernel (NASM assembler)

Question

I would like to set the video mode in the ASM kernel I'm working on in the video mode of 1920x1080 or higher (or at least above the usual limit in VESA). Is there a way to do this, and if so, provide some sample code?

I use NASM to encode the kernel.

I am sure that this will require a direct connection with the video card in question. This is what the Nvidia / ATI drivers do for you, but you're out of luck if your kernel does not support the windows / linux drivers;)
