Values for 800x480 fb_videomode depend on the TFT-panel that
you are using. Without the spec of this panel it is hard to guess.
It is also hard to guess the value for .pixclock as we do not know
if internal or external clock is used as the source for display
reference clock. What is the value of GDC DCM0 register (at
offset 0x1fd0000 or 0x1fd0100 from the GDC base)?

Try something like this:
.xres = 800
.yres = 480
.pixclock = 40000
.left_margin = 86
.right_margin = 42
.upper_margin = 33
.lower_margin = 10
.hsync_len = 128
.vsync_len = 2

Hello, the physical settings for sync are made by U-Boot and working!
But in Lunux when I use 800x480, the screen is well, but the Kernel crashes
at Bootup!
Using 800x600 works!
Now I need only "Dummy" settings, that I can tell Linux I would like 800x480
and the Kernel doesn`t crash!
I don`t know exactly why the Kernel crashes, I know only that the modedB
800x600 and so on work!
I will try your settings immediately!
Thanks

Alex
