Linux Mint was as easy an install I have ever done.
I am still a newbie and have had no problems.

I use Linux Mint on a Dell Optiplex GX280 that sits beneath my 42" HDTV. Using a wireless keyboard it's great. Never had any kind of problem installing it or getting any device to operate...wireless or otherwise.

Best option would be to get the latest Redhat distro and see what happens. Or download Linux Mint. New drivers are added all the time and an old version of RH could be the issue. Burn either to CD and boot from that. I'm betting you'll have no problems getting either of those to recognize all your hardware.
