I guess that's the point - no single distro will ever support all the
hardware that people have out-of-the-box.

Therefore, by definition, some distros will work better with a vanilla
install (or live CD) than others.

Find a flavour that does roughly what you need and that you're happy
doing the last 10% of the configuration/administration with.
