I'm having a similar issue. I got xfree86.dsl installed then it complained about Meta in the cfg file so I removed it.  Then it complained about no driver line, so I added one.  Now it's saying that the driver "neomagic" isn't valid for the chipset "neomagic" :\

The Thinkpad 240/NM2160 is very well supported by DSL by booting with fb800x600

At the first first boot prompt type:
boot: fb800x600
