Anyone out there gotten linux running on an X41 yet? I'm about 90% of the way there (typing this wirelessly on my x41 now) but still have a few snags...

I can't find a BSD forum so I figure this is the closest related topic.

Anyone try installing FreeBSD 5.4 on a T42? Does the wireless drivers work...
