I am hoping to change my OS from Windows Vista to Linux Ubuntu in the near future. I have many Firefox addons, and I am worried that they will not work on Ubuntu.

The vast majority of the extensions made for Firefox are compatible with all platforms, but there are a few that only work with Windows or Windows & Linux OS's - MacOSX is usually the OS that is not supported or tested with. Check the Addons Mozilla. Org download page or the extension developer's support pages for that information.
