I have a TP770ED, may be this will work for you too.
You have simply to modify the XF86 configuration file

1) make a backup of the file 
 /etc/X11/XF86Config

2) 
edit that file, replace some sections with the following:

Section "Monitor"
         Identifier      "TP770ED_LCD-1024x768"
         VendorName      "IBM"
         ModelName       "TP770Ed (14.1)"
         HorizSync       31.5-48.5
         VertRefresch    55-70
         Modeline        "1024x768"  60.00    1024 1032 1176 1344    768 771 
777 806  
-hsync -vsync
EndSection

Section "Device"
         Identifier      "TP770ED_XGA"
         VendorName      "IBM"
         BoardName       "TP770ED"
         Option          "accel"
         VideoRam        4096
EndSection

Section "Screen"
         Driver          "SVGA"
         Device          "TP770ED_XGA"
         Monitor         "TP770ED_LCD-1024x768"
         DefaultColorDepth 32
         Subsection "Display"
                 Depth   32
                 Modes   "1024x768"
                 ViewPort  0 0 
                 Virtual         1024  768
         EndsubSection
EndSection

Hope this helps.
