Not to start a distro war. 

Chris there are plenty of distros out there now that do an excellent job
on detection. 

Take a look at Libranet out of BC. It's Debian based and gives you
plenty of desktop switching capabilities. By trying different desktops you can
choose what will work best for your system. They have KDE as well.
However it's uses a lot of system resources. Not to start a desktop war, IceWM is
may be a better choice or Xterm. 

They have a free version you can download. If your connection is slow,
forward your address to me and I'll mail you a copy.
