Hi I did a goggle search ubuntu hardware compatibility listing" and I got a lot of hits.
Below is three that you might want to check out. http://www.ubuntuhcl.org/ http://www.ubuntux.org/linux-hardware-compatibility-list http://www.pcmech.com/article/ubuntu-hardware-compatibility/ Generally speaking, desktop or tower computers tend to have the least compatibility problems. Laptops you can search around and find people's experiences with various laptops and see who has the best laptop/Ubuntu match up. For instance my tower computer has everything working fine but my Acer Aspire 4710z has problems for the built in web cam. I have a Canon Pixma iP1880 that I can't get working with Ubuntu either. I was told that NVIDIA is the better choice for Ubuntu as far as video cards but that might have changed. My first tower with Ubuntu running in it was a 500 Mhz, PIII with 256 MB of ram with a 64 MB NVIDIA card. I was running Ubuntu 7.10 and I was able to run Compiz with no problems so you don't have to have a killer system for Ubuntu. One Thing to be careful about is looking at the dates of any posts or articles you read since some info might be out of date. Also everyone has there opinion. Some info you find is good unbiased info and some is sentimental/emotional opinion. For instance you find people offering the opinon that something "sucks", but give no intelligent reasons why they have come to that conclusion. So keep that in mind also.
