Flexview Screens
The T60 uses EDID lockout chips to restrict the types of screens it is compatible with. Thus, if you are using a screen from an A31, T41, T42, or T43; you will need to hack the EDID to support it.
However, you can't hack an EDID if the screen has no such chip... Which only some T43 series do.
Coreboot is an open source, user configurable BIOS. However, it does use a few proprietary blobs here and there.
These require hardware flashing. Due to Intel Management Firmware, proprietary blobs are required for newer Intel motherboards to even power up.

- xx30 BIOS Mod with Old Keyboard - Since Libreboot's ROMs each can use a different keyboard layout, would it be possible to modify Coreboot to work with the old xx20 keyboard? Or just mod the official BIOS to do so?

- ThinkPad T60p (ATI GPU)
- ThinkPad T22 - Back when Coreboot was known as "LinuxBIOS", they installed it on a ThinkPad T22 for Richard Stallman.
Most Intel Chromebooks come with Coreboot preinstalled. SeaBIOS can optionally be installed to add Windows support.
Just use John Lewis's Installation Script for All Models to autoinstall.
