Could not get install to finish properly. Install would freeze shortly after loading video. Someone with more linux knowledge might be able to get it to install, but it was beyond my knowledge.

RedHat9 installed perfectly well. Nothing to do by hand.
Only problem is the svideo adapter whose driver lacks some functions (changing resolution)

No issues with install.
I have not tested suspend to disk/mem or special keys yet - but it has the drivers.
Everything else just worked.
I later broke the sound trying to get Macromedia Flash to work.
System sounds now work, bit XMM won't play. My fault though,
it worked out of the box. Flash is a pain on linux anyway.
Wacom Graphire3 works fine. You need to use /dev/input/event3
as the input for wacom, and /dev/input/mouse1 for the mouse.
Don't use /dev/input/mice as that pulls data from the wacom as well.

Doesn't support ACPI, you'll need to use APM. In Ubuntu (and probably other distros) you'll need to set "acpi=off noacpi" when installing or the the process will hang on acpi detection.
Apart from that everything works, including thinkpad buttons, using the thinkpad-specific debian packages. Use "apt-cache search Thinkpad" to find them.

Works great, even the on-board winmodem (well with ltmodem drivers). Only problem: with 2.6 kernel i can't get it to go to sleep when closing the lid

Had to tweak APM to restore sound after a suspend/resume cycle. Other than that, everything works great! See thinkwiki.org for lots of information about Thinkpads.
