I have a working IBM 3101 terminal I got working with Linux. The
"magic" was a terminfo entry that leverages the screen for as much as
it will do (it has a few more feature sequences than a VT52, and way
less than a VT100).

(looks like the link to the referenced terminfo file is now dead).
I know the 3151 is a later model in the sequence - it appears to
emulate the IBM 3101, plus the ADM-3A, ADM-5, ADDS Viewpoint A2,
Hazeltine 1500, and various Televideo TVI 9xx models.
$85 for a working dumb terminal sounds pretty good these days.
