Forgive me, I don't know why I even mentioned Nexenta. I guess it was the
most obscure distribution I could think of. I've tried RedHat Enterprise,
Fedora Core 10, Ubuntu 9.0something and Debian. If you get ubuntu to work
out of the box, without boot, wifi or bluetooth problems (you should be fin=
e
with a T61) fine, if not, I'd try Fedora Core, it's pretty polished, even
though it's RPM based.
