have had a great deal of success running Mandrake 7.1 on my thinkpad 2611450. Originally I tried Slackware, and then Mandrake 7.0-2, but neither one would work with my sound card (YamahaOPL3SA2) However LM7.1 loaded great, 30 Minutes, and when I ran sndconfig at the command prompt, it loaded the correct drivers.
