I too run Trisquel on a Lenovo ThinkPad (R61).  Currently I live without
wireless.  (Bluetooth works, however.)  The only other thing that
doesn't work (at least not out of the box) is the fingerprint reader
which didn't do so under Ubuntu either.  I know that some ThinkPad users
have troubles with the volume up / down / mute keys but mine work fine.

There is a wiki page about Lenovo's wireless diseases on ThinkWiki:

http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Problem_with_unauthorized_MiniPCI_network_card

The page also documents a hack to get "unauthorized" cards working but
the steps involved are definitely beyond the scope of the average
desktop user and might destroy the hardware.

I suggest you boot a Trisquel live system to see what issues your
machine might have.  This won't touch your current install.  Also see my
other post about that:

Hope you'll like Trisquel!
