I have found your model:

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/quickPath.do?quickPathEntry=2887GVM&quickPathEntry.x=13&quickPathEntry.y=14

it says: XGA(1024x768) TFT LCD. You can also find info about it in your Xorg 
(or XFree86) log file. On my machine it says

(II) RADEON(0): Panel ID string: Samsung LTN150P1-L02
(II) RADEON(0): Panel Size from BIOS: 1400x1050
(II) RADEON(0): BIOS provided dividers will be used.
(II) RADEON(0): Total number of valid DDC mode(s) found: 0
(II) RADEON(0): Valid mode using on-chip RMX: 1400x1050
(II) RADEON(0): Total number of valid FP mode(s) found: 1
(--) RADEON(0): Virtual size is 1400x1050 (pitch 1408)

Hence, I am afraid you have to stick with 1024x768.
