I happened to have had a problem that seems to be similar to yours, earlier
this month, configuring my laptop. My hardware is probably as ancient as
yours (AcerNote Light p1 100MHz), but this worked for me for the hsync and
vsync...

If you can't find your laptop's manual, or if in reading it can't find the
video card information, you can always try using "generic VGA" or something
similar. Also, try http://www.linux-laptop.net/xfree86.html. There are some
links to some XF86Config archives.
Hopefully this helps,
