The extra options which you require that are on Windows but not on Ubuntu are available from the drivers which are released by the manufacturers.

If the manufacturer does not provide similar drivers for Linux that are also in Windows, then it is nothing the Linux developers can do. Reinventing the wheel won't help either.

The more people contact the manufacturers asking for better drivers for their Linux distribution the better.
