Hi John,
Maybe this isn't exactly what you're asking but a substitute for it. You can
try a live CD that you can download and burn on any platform. I
particularly recommend Knoppix. Just stick the live CD in the drive and
boot up. You can then investigate all settings (xorg, etc.) at your
leisure. If Knoppix is happy with your pc then it's a pretty good bet that
Debian will be also.
Cheers,
Jonathan
