Distros backport, you (in compat) backport, kernel versions sound old very quickly and in a year, when linux is called 2.9.06 you may not even want to sell a card that says "2.6.25" on it because it sounds ancient. Just leave it out, make it depend on the driver being merged into Linus's tree, leave it up to the distros to actually ship the code. I would also add to the contract a requirement to offer Linux support for, say, the next five years. johannes
