Perhaps.

There is an excellent list for the distro that I am considering. And
*no* it is *not* Ubuntu
or any of it's off shoots,

I see much good help here mostly. But the 'other list' seldom offers
'try this it  work' suggestions since most of the answers are from the
actual developers and package
maintainers. They follow their one list closely.

Good luck with your problem. IMHO?  Reindl Harald's is the best
suggestion so far. However you need to have the knowledge to write your
own init script for you system's video to use his suggestion.
