Just one man's experience, but if you want a Linux that "just works," try Mageia. I've been running it since 2011, and in that time I don't remember ever hand-editing a config file. All my laptop's hardware works, printers just work, I use KDE and the monitor hot-plugging just works, the whole nine yards. It's pretty sweet! It's actually gotten to where I no longer really remember how to do anything in Linux that would necessitate dropping to the command line. Happily, I can't remember the last time I needed to.
