Binary compatability on the same architecture IS important.
You should not have to do anything more than select a processor architecture when installing an application or driver for Linux. I know that will be a while, but that is where we need to go. Otherwise, we are just ceding the desktop to Microsoft.

YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHICH DISTRIBUTION, VERSION OF THE KERNEL, OR VERSION OF LIBRARIES YOU ARE USING.
