Given that you're talking about a laptop, I think you should consider trying to locate a closer-match X server for your grahpics chipset. You can get PCMCIA VGA cards, but they're expensive (Last time I saw one was about $500 a few years ago). However, these won't solve your problems because such cards can only drive external displays, and not the internal LCD. I somehow doubt this would achieve your goals.
