Let's give credit to Unit193 for pointing out the startlubuntu command
to me in IRC earlier.  So this is good example of an issue solved by the
Lubuntu community working together, rather than by one person :)

One more note: if you lack the startlubuntu command, you should install
the lubuntu-desktop-settings package, by doing something like:

  sudo apt-get install lubuntu-default-settings
