I have also seen SuSE on T23, T42, and my wife's R52.

I have never encountered trouble with the video chip.  (but see note)
Really never experienced trouble with the wired NIC.
But I consistently have trouble with WEP on the wireless NIC.

Note:  The team I work with was trying to run the old T23 dual-headed.
(Long story there.)  It did not work.  Turned out to be a hardware
problem related to DVI.  Nothing wrong with SuSE in that case.
The built-in screen worked great,  and the machine works
flawlessly with an external screen connected via D9 SVGA.
