I'm running SuSE 7.3 personal on my T20.  One of my co-workers is running 
redhat 7.2 standard.  Both are more satisfactory than earlier 
redhats, both work well dual boot with 2K, and neither depends on tpctl. I've 
had rh 6.2 and 7.1 running previously.  SuSE comes with working RealPlayer 
and the like; redhat of course follows the line "we support only server 
software." Reports on SuSE 8.0 are mixed; it's fine if you know your way 
around.
