Well I have a brand new Acer here... And I installed Slackware Current with kernel 2.6.14.3
The problem is that I can't find the technical specifications for this model... Even Google couldn't give me an answer...
So I can't put the correct values in etc/X11/xorg.conf

I have no idea what vertical and horizontal refresh should I use... This model has Intel 855G built-in card... So I tried with "i810" driver and it works... I've read somewhere that I can use "i915" for a video driver, but putting it in my xorg.conf made my X to not run at all.
So when the driver is standard /"vesa"/ I can have 1024x768 with 60 Hz
When I use "i810" it works too, but I have 0Hz
Well this "0 Hz" thing is an error I suppose... But I think I can fix it only with the correct values for vertical and horizontal refresh... And I can't find any information about them... Nor in Internet or in my User's Guide...

Any ideas?

Ask to Acer!
really, I needed the vertical and horizontal refresh just as you, ( but I have an other travelmate, with ati's 9100 IGP...) I mailed them and they answered back in 24h...

--edit
if you mail them, don't say you use linux, or the answer will be "we don't support linux"... just say you need them...

forgot to ask : tried on http://www.linux-on-laptops.com ?
if you need other resolutions (> 1024x768) look here...

Thanks! I will try to contact them... But it is so bad that there is not such technical info on their website or in my User's Guide

About http://www.linux-on-laptops.com
I looked there, but no info for me...
Any ideas about the email address?
