2.6 isn't binary compatible with 2.4. However, the Intel Modem drivers are part binary (core) and part code (the kernel glue if you will). They should work. Plus, as Intel has contributed greatly to the 2.5 release cycle (check the change-logs) in the past, you can trust them to release 2.6 drivers if the current drivers won't be compatible.
