Thanks for info does this mean that iwill not be able to use ubuntu 11.10 as an operating system
 
It just means that you don't need the Windows drivers. Linux provides it's own drivers; it has to as it's a totally different Operating System. Don't worry about drivers, just worry about whether your Ubuntu install is working. If it is then all is well.

And thanks to the internet, whatever drivers you don't have you can download the Linux version of it from the internet.

If you want everything working out of the box and it isn't, you can just try another Linux distribution, like Fedora or OpenSUSE. :)
