I guess about all Linux'es are downwards compatible but maybe try Ubuntu which you can download for free and is very user friendly. It usually comes with a graphical desktop, but you can always open up a shell and start digging into it.
Or Debian, or or ... there are so many ^^

NAME
xfce4-power-manager-settings - Settings dialog for the Xfce 4 Power manager SYNOPSIS
xfce4-power-manager-settings [options] DESCRIPTION
xfce4-power-manager-settings is a utility that comes with the Xfce4 power manager to access/change its configuration. It is a separate program that uses xfconf to load/save settings according to the user's choices. xfce4-power-manager-settings requires the Xfce4 power man- ager to be running because it connects to it via DBus and gets information about which settings should and should not be displayed; for example, the xfce4-power-manager-settings utility will not show the LCD brightness settings if no device was detected by the running instance of the Xfce4 power manager. xfce4-power-manager-settings does not have any command line options. BUGS
Please report bugs to http://bugzilla.xfce.org/. Development discussion should be conducted on the goodies-dev@xfce.org mailing list. Usage-related questions should be directed to the xfce@xfce.org mailing list. HOMEPAGE
