You have to change the Section "Screen" in Your XF86Config-4:
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
This should work for Your Laptop with 16 bit color depth.
For Your external Monitor I would suggest an entry like:
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
EndSubSection
Check Your default color depth. It is:
DefaultDepth 16
If 16 bit works correctly, You may want to try if it looks better with 24
bit. ;))
