How can I verify hardware compatibility?

[Grok Mogger <linuximp@gmail.com>]

I'm planning on buying components individually and piecing 
together a computer.  I'd like to install Debian Linux on it. 
I'm not buying any of the latest and greatest stuff, and the 
hardware I have picked out is pretty standard fare, nothing too 
fancy.  So I'm pretty sure everything will "just work" (TM), but 
I'd still kind of like to verify each piece before I just buy 
everything, slap it together, install and pray.

I was wondering if anyone could suggest any techniques, very 
good websites, or anything else to try to verify that, yes, 
there are indeed working drivers for my hardware.

Thanks,
- GM
