I just tried a Ubuntu 7.10 CD on a 600E and most everything worked fine.
No sound, but that's not a surprise. I didn't check the modem. I
didn't do anything special but the 600E has a 1999 BIOS date so ACPI
didn't load anyway. I was pleasantly surprised that the Zyxel G102
PCCard WLAN device (Atheros chipset) was detected and worked fine. This
600E has 416 MB RAM. I tried the same CD on a Thinkpad A22e with only
256 MB last month and it failed during installation due to insufficient RAM.
