I don't remember if I posted it here, but I managed to get Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
installed and running on my ThinkPad 750P. That's a 33MHz 486 with 36MB
RAM.
I tried Feisty and Gutsy, and both of those crashed just after boot, so
the kernels may not be compatible with the machine.
I just have the base system installed, but it does seem to work. I even
saw X start up once at 320x240x1 bit. I would like to get all the devices
working, but my free time is eaten by other projects.
I have a write-up here:

Feel free to add to the page, the discussion, or ask me any questions!
