> Upstream kernel drivers are coded for the kernel version that they live in.
That exactly is the problem - the missing downward compatibility. But there are
a lot of drivers which can be used w/ older kernels:
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/
This makes it possible to run the old working kernel w/o having the need to run
a bleeding edge kernel which most of the time breaks some other devices (as w/
3.19., which breaks USB on boot up here). And it makes it possible to compile
just the module which is needed - de facto the same handling as it is provided
by Catalyst.
