XFree 4.x was pretty much needed, but worked very well.

Not sure I quite catch the drift... are you saying that the video
gremlins I see in text console mode after starting X on my 760
series laptops are something I can expect to continue to see on the
much later laptop?
(Not a huge deal for me or, apparently, for you...)

Not at all.. I meant that you had to use XFree 4.x, as there wasn't a 
3.x server that worked with the chipset in the laptop. You should be 
fine.
On a sort of related note, if you don't already have the T22, and don't 
need to always have the optical drive, consider the X23. I ran RH8 on 
one for a while before selling it, and loved it. Amazingly light and 
great battery life. Smallish screen (12.1"), but still looked great at 
1024x768. It used a Radeon 7000 for the video, so it always looked 
great. I also ran Gentoo on it for a while, and that worked well too.
