Once a driver has been [[:driver-backport:source_management|backported]] it needs to be precompiled to the distro kernel for distribution.

This should work as similar as possible accross the different distributions so system and component vendors can focus their energies from adding Linux support to more distros to adding Linux support to more hardware.
