I have not seen one of the 26523 series, yet. The Thinkpads
A20m A21m A20p and A21p that I have seen or read about up to now (including
my 2628GTU) used an Intel EEpro100 ethernet card which works just fine.
The graphics on mine is ATI Rage mobility and also works without problems.
Maybe you can just call IBM technical support and ask - they make a big deal
of supporting LINUX so they might be able to answer. At the very least you
can find out what kind of ethernet card they use for that model so you can
check that specific model for LINUX friendliness...
