Comes with all the software, hardware detection is usually straightforward, will work with XGL/Beryl whatever. The only thing you'll have to set up pretty much is getting some Microsoft fonts and mp3 playback, and that's dead easy the support forums tell you everything you need to know. Ubuntu is based on Debian however, so Reisio is probably giving you the best advice, I'd compare them both and see which suits you best. Let us know how you get on.
