Thanks
To my knowledge, it is not possible to use rpm packages on Debian, or
use deb packages on non-Debian distributions. I don't know exactly
what you meant by a "software designed for Redhat", but there may be a
equivalent for Debian. But Red Hat or Fedora-specific tools aren't
available usually in other distributions.
Besides, you should give a try of Knoppix which is, as Johannes
Wiedersich said, an excellent tool to test your laptop's Linux
abilities, as its hardware detection process is quite powerful and
accurate.
