Scott, thank you. Let me refine my question.

As an Enterprise operating system, CentOS provides software seamless compatibility (if this can be called compatibility) inside the same release (as Centos-4, or Centos-3, or Centos-2). Correct me if I´m wrong.

I know that if Intel (or whatever) releases a driver for CentOS 4.1, one may think that it must be a new driver, possibly unstable. But let´s suppose a vendor gives me a driver which is new but completely stable (just suppose, because this is just a conceptual question). Will this driver be compatible with every (forward and/or backward) "sub-versions" of CentOS 4 ? Should it work on Centos 4.0, 4.2 and 4.3 ? Maybe I´m just messing things. If Centos 4.x has the same kernel release, then every module should work on any Centos 4.x versions. Please make things more clear for me.
