I've got FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE running on a Acer Aspire 1410 (11.6") 
netbook. I'm using WindowMaker as WM - and it runs fine in in its native 
LCD resolution (1366 x 768) - haven't ever used/tried the external 
display adapter.

According to the specs from Acer it contains the chipset you mention - 
please check this link:

Is there anything that I should try out for you ?
