I have a z61t and I'm running FreeBSD 6.1 stable from August on it. 
Versions earlier than that do not work with the bge ethernet adapter. 
That was my biggest problem with it when I got the system in July.  Xorg 
is working just fine.  I don't have sound yet but have not really tried to 
get it working either.  I have not tried to get many of the "extras" on 
the system working with FreeBSD but generally I can get my work done and 
that's all that really matters to me.

If you want more info. let me know.  I could send dmesg to you if you 
like.
