The kernel obviously was there in /boot and it was removed and
replaced. Back in 9.3 or so, when a kernel was replaced, it wasn't
removed but used as a backup. That saved my buns more than once and I
lament the change to replace and remove of the current versions.
I don't remember that behavior in 9.3. Plus, the binary in /boot might
remain there, but that is not the whole kernel.
You should report on bugzilla your problem with the new kernel that
the old hasn't, anyhow, so that the new one can be patched.
I submitted a bug report a long time ago on this along with a GPL's copy
of the source code to the driver which compiled sucessfully with -25 but
not on the others. The bug is still open and the manufacturer has other
cards with 'higher priorities'. Their controller is super, their
support leaves a lot to be desired.
Ah? Then it is a manufacturer driver, that doesn't compile, not a broken
part in the kernel?
In any case, if the new kernel broke it, I think you could submit a
bugzilla against this new kernel breaking the driver.
