www.linux-laptop.net is our friend. I looked it up and found under http://t2100cdt.kippona.net/linux/lte5200/ the following, which might be the solution for your laptop:
"2003-02-09 in X 4.1.x you can use the "vesa" driver at 800x600 16 bit no problem at all! gave up on the "cirrus" driver after finding out i could use vesa. no idea if there's a performance hit at all but it goes and thats all that counts for me! maybe someone else can shed some light on how to use the cirrus driver to get more speed, but this will get you going in the meantime :) hope it helps someone!
