Hi Fritz, 12.04 was Precise :) There are a lot of older computer features (PAE some stuff with Xorg) that went away in 12.10 (and later) so 12.04 is the go-to right now for older computers, HOWEVER Lubuntu is not to be recommended for 12.04... it is quite the conundrum...
Your suspend issue may also be due to the built-in drivers being updated to target newer hardware, rather than older... :( I do hope you can find out a solution for it. If you do, please add it to the PPC wiki page!!
