Drivers in Linux

[Chris Hallsworth]

Hi, go to www.ubuntu.com and look at the compatible hardware section. My HP laptop is a good candidate for both Vista and Ubuntu, and I was able to make a smooth transition. Hope that helps.

  *Apologies in advance if this is the inappropriate place to ask this question*

  I am looking for direction in terms of how do I make Ubuntu support my hardware with Linux compatible drivers. I am about to make the switch from Vista to Ubuntu but I am not sure how to ensure that all my hardware functions properly. Should I seek out the drivers before installing Ubuntu and then be able to have them ready to install? Basically, I am looking for the smoothest transition from a Vista based machine to Ubuntu! Thanks!
