Hi Greg! No, i don't think so, because i went into the same identical problem when i used "your" values (1024x768 - which resulted anyway in the correct screen, 1440x900, as well).
A personal question: I was very happy when i succeeded to install, via alternative installer, 12.10 onto the powerbook. But now, i'm really very sad about the fact, suspend (ram or disk) do not work. They only seem to shut down the screen, fan, wireless and cpu continue to work. in 12.04 that was perfect. And, btw, i have the same problem on a Samsung 535 u3c (a double core amd64, extremely quick and smart. Really on the samsun the problem is slightly different: suspend-to-ram won't reawake, suspend-to-disk reawakes but shuts down hardwarewise the wireless with no chance to reget it without reboot). Since i found something by google i got the suspect, that might not be a lubuntu thing but kernel related. So i tried out, on the samsung: Fedora 17 live (kernel 3.6 or so) and kubuntu 12.10 live, same result as with lubuntu 12.10. Then, linuxmint debian 13 (kernel 3.2) and, voilà, suspend works!!! (Small footnote: Looking a bit at this other distros i realized how nice is the skin of lubuntu!!! :) ). Now, as you can imagine, no suspend on a portable is not that reasonable, would be interesting to know: Is this only a personal problem. Then i'd have to try *MY* solution (either bricolage around acpi or downgrading until there is hope for a systematical solution) or if there is a reasonable prospective which makes waiting the best way to go. Thanks for your patience anyway, and thanks a lot for your big work!
