Equating kernel versions between deflt, smp, and source

Dear Susites, and Mantel in particular,

The version numbers for different styles of kernels are all different.

In the current updates we have:
k_athlon-2.4.19-167.i586.rpm
k_deflt-2.4.19-174.i586.rpm
k_smp-2.4.19-163.i586.rpm
kernel-source-2.4.19.SuSE-115.i586.rpm

How do we evaluate which versions correspond to which?
Especially, which version of the source corresponds to which binary?

And, how do we find what version of a particular driver
has been used in a particular kernel, binary or source?

I'm interested in the light of all the traffic recently
about aacraid, megaraid and tg3 versus bcm5700 drivers.

TIA,
michaelj
