Has anyone had luck getting FreeBSD running on any of IBM ThinkPads?

If so, I'd like some feed back from people who use it.  Some of the things
I'm curious about are support for the built in sound chip in the newer TP,
support for the Graphics card in XFree86

I'm not too concerned with the power mgmt issues.
