My Thinkpad R40 works quite well, too.

- ACPI is fine
- wireless lan with ndis drivers (for Win XP)
- sound ok
- graphics ok (without glx or X won't start properly)
- LAN is ok
- I don't know how to make the internal MC'97 56k work :(

Additional hint:
options CPU_ENABLE_TCC
should be enabled. I measured lower power consumption
after compiling kernel with this option.
