Backports provide drivers released on ''newer'' kernels backported for usage on ''older kernels''. Always use the latest stable release! The project started since 2007 and was originally known as '''compat-wireless''', evolved to '''compat-drivers''' and was recently renamed simply to '''backports'''. Both daily snapshots based on [http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git linux-next], and stable releases based [http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git Linux's stable releases] are provided. As of the v3.10 based release over 830 device drivers are backported.
+Current versions of backports support all mainline kernels starting with version 3.0, for kernel versions older than 3.0 please use backports-3.14, which supports all kernel versions back to 2.6.26.
