I have and Intel GMA900 (i915) and I have absolutely no problems with resolution (1280x800, Acer 1641 WLMi) BUT (AND I SAID BUT >_<), the 915resolution package of Ubuntu (and Debian Etch) seems to be buggy.
I use the 915resolution official sources on the creator website, and I do :
make clean
make
sudo make install
cd /etc/init.d
sudo gedit resolution (don't put 915, because of link problems which is surely the 915resolution Ubuntu paquet bug reason)
put these lines in the file :
#!/bin/bash
/usr/sbin/915resolution 5c 1280 800 # verify ! read 91reso doc
exit 0
then exit gedit
sudo chmod 777 resolution
cd /etc/rcS.d
sudo ln -s ../init/d/resolution S02resolution

And that works for me (breezy or dapper)
