For anybody that hasn't been able to get 1366x768 with SiS - you may want to read this..
I have been trying to find a solution for my laptop (Acer K50C) sis 672. I wanted to get 1366x768 resolution working with Ubuntu 14.04. In previous releases of ubuntu I downloaded the sis761 driver and compiled it....but I haven't been able to find a code that compiles ok for this ubuntu release.
I ended up downloading the sisimedia driver
followed the instructions at the URL Below:
