Just discovered your webpage and thought I'd let you know it is very helpful to see this info!
I just won a P1120 off of eBay, so hope to have it within a week. Hope it was a wise decision!
This will replace my little Libretto 110CT that I used with AmigoLinux (Slackware derivative, EASY to install...)..
Might try Mandrake or Debian I think on the new P..... ;-)

Cool, glad you found it helpful. Let me know how it goes (and if you write anything up, please do post a link here)--I'm thinking about upgrading one of these days but not sure if I'll be able to get the touchscreen working again if I do.

Thanks for the lifebook page! I was very happy to find the pen driver for ubuntu.
My install was easy, I took the drive out of the lifebook and put it into a desktop with an 40 pin to laptop IDE converter cable and installed the latest ubuntu up to the point where it reboots. From there I put it back in the lifebook and let it finish instalIling. Wireless worked right off, I have not tested the power settings to see if it sleeps/resumes but the battery info shows up correctly.

I just discovered your site. I am going to install linux on my lifebook. You mentioned on your site that you used a non-standard driver to get the wireless working. You said that details were available upon request. Can I get the details from you.

Hi, that's pretty old info by now; Ubuntu worked out of the box.
