I just got one of these as well.  I plan on installing tri-booting Redhat, 
Debian and XP soon but for this week I slapped Mandrake 9.2 on it to get it 
up and going fast.  The WiFi works and there were a hand-full of ACPI 
options in the installer, which is a good thing because I understand that 
the main hurdle with these things is the move to ACPI from APM.  I think 
Kyle is looking for p2120 details for his site 
(http://greenfly.org/fujitsu/).  I offered mine as a Debian test bed so he 
can fill in the thin sections.  Overall, a damn cool little 
box.  Congratulations.
