Okey, then you need to see to that you really are using the intel driver and 
not the XF86 driver and if you have a modeline for 1024x768, you need to 
verify that it's correct for your hardware, go to 
http://koala.ilog.fr/cgi-bin/nph-colas-modelines
and fill the form as correctly as you can.

If this still don't work, then you have no other choises (frankly I can't se 
why you wouldn't have any option to upgrade, you have root access on the machine).
