== Issues/Solutions with Karmic x86 (32-bit) ==
To use the native resolution 1024x768 you need to make a few changes to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
First, reboot Ubuntu into recovery mode. Then type
{{{
Xorg -configure
}}}
Now reboot into normal Ubuntu. Open /etc/X11/xorg.conf as root in your favorite text editor. Replace Section "Device" with the following:
{{{
Section "Device"
        ### Available Driver options are:-
        ### Values: <i>: integer, <f>: float, <bool>: "True"/"False",
        ### <string>: "String", <freq>: "<f> Hz/kHz/MHz"
        ### [arg]: arg optional
        #Option     "NoAccel"               # [<bool>]
        #Option     "SWcursor"              # [<bool>]
        #Option     "Dac6Bit"               # [<bool>]
        #Option     "Dac8Bit"               # [<bool>]
        #Option     "DMAForXv"              # [<bool>]
        #Option     "ForcePCIMode"          # [<bool>]
        #Option     "CCEPIOMode"            # [<bool>]
        #Option     "CCENoSecurity"         # [<bool>]
        #Option     "CCEusecTimeout"        # <i>
        #Option     "AGPMode"               # <i>
        #Option     "AGPSize"               # <i>
        #Option     "RingSize"              # <i>
        #Option     "BufferSize"            # <i>
        #Option     "EnablePageFlip"        # [<bool>]
        #Option     "Display"               # <str>
        #Option     "PanelWidth"            # <i>
        #Option     "PanelHeight"           # <i>
        #Option     "ProgramFPRegs"         # [<bool>]
        #Option     "UseFBDev"              # [<bool>]
        #Option     "VideoKey"              # <i>
        #Option     "ShowCache"             # [<bool>]
        #Option     "VGAAccess"             # [<bool>]
   Identifier  "Card0"
   Driver      "ati"
   VendorName  "ATI Technologies Inc"
   BoardName   "Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x"
   BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
}}}
Replace Section "Screen" to this:
{{{
Section "Screen"
   Identifier "Screen0"
   Device     "Card0"
   Monitor    "Monitor0"
   DefaultDepth   24
   SubSection "Display"
      Depth      1
      Modes      "1024x768"
   EndSubSection
   SubSection "Display"
      Depth      4
      Modes      "1024x768"
   EndSubSection
   SubSection "Display"
      Depth      8
      Modes      "1024x768"
   EndSubSection
   SubSection "Display"
      Depth      15
      Modes      "1024x768"
   EndSubSection
   SubSection "Display"
      Depth      16
      Modes      "1024x768"
   EndSubSection
   SubSection "Display"
      Depth      24
      Modes      "1024x768"
   EndSubSection
EndSection
}}}
Lastly, Section "Monitor" should be modified to this:
{{{
Section "Monitor"
   Identifier   "Monitor0"
   VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
   ModelName    "Monitor Model"
   Option      "DPMS"
   HorizSync   28-51
   VertRefresh   43-60
EndSection
}}}

Now save your work, log out and then press Ctrl+Alt+SysRq+K to restart X, hopefully with the correct resolution.

Karmic x86 (stable release) tested on this system:
acpi-support was not enabled on my installation so nothing was found in /var/lib/acpi-support. I'm however certain of the following:
