You might try finding some of the Linux on the Thinkpad pages around.
I've got several bookmarked, but if you find one and follow the links,
you've essentially found most of them:

http://www.mindspring.com/~finkels/thinkpad.html
http://www.wwsi.com/linux-tp.html
http://www.peipa.essex.ac.uk/tp-linux/tp-linux.html

This should get you started.  Many different XF86Config files are offered
as examples, and some seem to be working in 16bit color, to my surprise!
;-)  I have yet to achieve that on my 701CS, personally.
