I have installed it on my brothers 360C and it worked. I almost configured X, 
XFREE86Config did run but got something "abd" in the modlines that I din't had 
timer to check out. And I don't know if he everfixed that.

The 3690 is some kind of 486, with color display. There are several good sites 
about IBM thinkpads linked from www.linux.org.
