[conspire] test drive of new laptop

[Paul Zander]

I just bought a new laptop. I want to install Debian. Knowing that laptops can have components that are not compatible with Linux I thought it would be a good idea to first run from a live CD and put the graphics, etc through "test drive".
What would be a good candidate for the live CD?  Ubuntu, Jessie?
What particular things should I try?
Paul
