Debian's contribution to hardware support is limited to enabling 
specific options in the kernel or, occasionally, backporting patches 
that have already been accepted upstream.

Other distributions are either using different kernels or non-upstreamed 
patches.

Video support often requires closed source drivers, that nobody bothered 
to package for 'nonfree' (assuming they are even distributable).

Kind regards,
Andrei
