The Trusty Stinkpad, Nimble. Works well with Mandrake, RedHat, Slackware, FreeBSD, Gentoo and OpenBSD, at least the last few versions for the past few years.
Acpi works well, everything is pretty standard aside from the Apollo Lucent Winmodem, but there's a binary driver for that I've never used.

14.1 inch brilliant TFT that's never had an issue, 4 silly multimedia keys I once bothered to map if you ever have any questions about them, post here. I snipped the line to the onboard cd controls long ago dissassembling it so I can't even remember if those worked correctly.
The onboard video card is an ATI Mach64 with S-video out, look around for a tiny little program called atitvout (no longer maintained), to get it to display to framebuffer. Makes it possible for this tiny little 4Mb card to display to FB from a tty with something like Mplayer.
