As in, no command line needed at any point.
Now I love the command line and use vim and gcc on my mac when I could just use xcode, but most people aren't quite as geeky as I.

I have yet to have a machine in which K/X/Ubuntu was unable to install drivers during the initial installation process. Yes, I use aptitude or apt-get to download application packages, but with the Synaptics Package Manager, you don't have to launch a terminal window at all to add applications.
I'm pretty sure you will be able to take a machine, install K/X/Ubuntu and configure it to you liking without launching a terminal window once.

Running Ubuntu without using command line is theoretically possible, but deviate in the slightest from the path that was laid before you and it's command line city.
