Can someone recommend me a Linux distro with good hardware integration and stability for my laptop?

    CentOS. I run it on a desktop, and on an Intel Atom powered netbook. Both run well. Smooth install, with no issues on either platform.

    fedora or ubuntu are both quick choices, linux mint is another option. just about anything else would require manual work

    Hardware specs are required prior to dispensing advice.

    @SuryaK closely pay attention to your wifi card, this often caused me trouble, check the availability list before you install and install it first thing after start if needed. Especialy broadcom :/ its a bitch

    Try Solus Linux it's stable and really fast.

    Go for mint, feels good and stable!

    Literally any distribution.

    Software support is more problematic. Most software publishers publish .deb packages for Debian/Ubuntu/Mint. Some might go to a more specific - Ubuntu, but none go to the too specific one - Mint. So you could say that Ubuntu is the safest bet if you want an easy life.

    Ubuntu is usually the safe bet
