Only the first paragraph should apply to you if you use slacko-5.4-4g. Try the mentioned "modesetting" driver from the xorgwizard.

I was supprised again, when Racy-5.5 was able to load the correct video driver for Acer Aspire One-751h, Intel GMA500 (Poulsbo) 1366x768 with correct resolution, but Slacko-5.5-4G non PAE did NOT?!
Is it so hard to borrow this from Racy?

It doesn't work like that. Racy packages are completely different, more close to 5.3.3 than 5.4 or 5.5. If you look through this thread most of the work is done on the k3.4.17 kernel in the 5.5PAE iso. If you get that one and follow on screen prompts and check the slacko-5.5 web page you should not have any troubles.

After all (2012-2014) advices from the FORUM, GOOGLE_ing, still Acer Aspire-One-A0751H, with Intel GMA500 video, can not use Precise-5.7 or Slacko-5.7.
It is a big disappointment.
Still hope, someone will help me...
