hi same for me in my tibook.

look to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

and modify it as below:

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "Color LCD"
        HorizSync       28-100
        VertRefresh     43-100
        Option          "DPMS"
EndSection

it's working for me at  "1152x768". i hope help you.

i think that ubuntu team should be fix two problems with the
ibook/powerbook apple:

1)  layout of keyboard should be set as default in


	Section "InputDevice"
      	  Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
      	  Driver          "keyboard"
      	  Option          "CoreKeyboard"
      	  Option          "XkbRules"      "xfree86"
      	  Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
      	  Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
	EndSection

and not in

	Section "InputDevice"
       	 Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
       	 Driver          "keyboard"
       	 Option          "CoreKeyboard"
       	 Option          "XkbRules"      "xfree86"
       	 Option          "XkbModel"      "macintosh"
       	 Option          "XkbLayout"     "us"
	EndSection

(note the "pc105" and "macintosh"



2) second problem:

the resolution at 640x480 fixable setting to "100" the HorizSync and
VertRefresh max range
