It would be wise at least to mention the chipset it uses. ;-)

I run Debian on my T23 with savage chipset. Numerous distros (e.g.
Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo) have had problems with a broken savage driver.
Maybe archlinux too.

Try looking it up in Google, and maybe try these:

http://fixunix.com/debian/131852-fwd-working-3d-acceleration-ibm-thinkpad=
-t23.html


http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-436831-highlight-vt8375.html

The latter page comes from a followup to an Archlinux thread in the
newbie section titled "Savage IX DRI not work". It is useful to try the
distro's forum first. ;-) The page I used to get it running is
apparently no longer online, but the two have similar approach.
