2nd-hand Laptop compatible with Ubuntu [closed]

I'm looking at buying a 2nd-hand laptop for hobby programming. I would like to be able to install Ubuntu, but I'm worried that Ubuntu will not have drivers for network/video, etc. (I installed Ubuntu on my desktop PC last year and I had to manually install Network drivers, and Ubuntu still doesn't allow more than 1024x768 even though I have 22" monitor.)
