Hi

You may want to have a look at /lib/modules/<kernel-version>:

elvis@box:/lib/modules/2.6.11.7-ec$ ls
build          modules.ccwmap       modules.inputmap   modules.symbols
kernel         modules.dep          modules.isapnpmap  modules.usbmap
modules.alias  modules.ieee1394map  modules.pcimap     source
elvis@box:/lib/modules/2.6.11.7-ec$ cd kernel/
elvis@box:/lib/modules/2.6.11.7-ec/kernel$ ls
arch  crypto  drivers  fs  lib  net  sound
elvis@box:/lib/modules/2.6.11.7-ec/kernel$

Or maybe the linux incopatibility list at [1] could also be helpful.
Or have a look at [2]
