Your Thinkpad card may well be supported by Xorg drivers included in the FC3 distribution.

Just got around to looking at xorg.conf and the card in it is the Rage 128 with r128 as the selected driver. However, when I attempt to compile in r128 support, I get a blank screen and have to boot up to either a kernel with Radeon support built-in or I have to build r128 support as a module. Does anyone have a working kernel with r128 support built-in or knows what I have to do to get a working kernel with r128 support built-into the kernel?

You should not need to take any extra steps to compile in support for an ATI r128 based video card when installing FC3 or FC2. The card should be detected during installation of FC3 and the appropriate X.org driver installed. My ATI Radeon 7000 video card was detected and appropriate support included along with the rest of FC2 when I installed the system from distribution CD isos.
