Hi Christopher,
Scientific Linux is an enterprise release.  We are based  off RHEL and 
not Fedora.  That means we are much more stable and do not run the 
latest kernel.
If you need some functionality that is only found in the latest kernels, 
then you need to talk with RedHat about porting that functionality into 
RHEL's kernel, or you need to figure out how to separate that 
functionality into a kernel module that can be loaded into older 2.6 
kernels.

Or is that what you are asking, how to package up a kernel module for 
enterprise releases such as SL, RHEL and CentOS?
