Both Damn Small and Deli Linux both worked on this laptop.
Damn Small Linux required frame-buffering mode.

I was never able to verify whether or not the PCMCIA bridge worked properly (the two wireless cards I tried were not noticed in the slightest, and I didn't have the time to troubleshoot).

Sound never worked either, but I have read of others getting it working.
