big ones are:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/1046951
and
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1046619

from a message from Greg suggests that latest daily (20120912) should fix the latter. we need to confirm this. 

Ben Collins, not of the lubuntu-qa team, has assigned the former to himself. it's already confirmed, but if you haven't already, do so, as that will turn up the heat. the thinking is it's a kernel driver bug. 

the related openchrome bug, i might add, despite original suggestion, DOES NOT APPLY to powerpc:
https://launchpad.net/bugs/1041625

speaking of powerpc, please file bugs if you got them and tag them "powerpc." when you're looking to help please check bugs tagged "powerpc" :)
