I too own an Aspire 5003 and am experiencing the same problem; it appears to 
get worse over time. Anyway a temporary fix is to change the Device section of 
xorg.conf as so:
Section "Device"
        Identifier      "Silicon Integrated Systems (SiS) SiS Default Card"
#       Driver          "sis"
        Driver          "vesa"
        BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"
The vesa driver however leaves you in 800x600. I hope a solution to this 
problem is found soon and will update if I find anything. Note: This also puts 
my screen at a weird 61Hz though there does not appear to be a problem with 
that on my screen at least. Problem is definitely in the sis driver.
