In the past I was working on a (now defunct) project called driver on demand, which stored drivers in a repo and could automatically fetch the correct ones for hardware.
Now that ubuntu has progressed, maybe its worth returning to it, because technologies like HAL can finally allow it to work without hacks.

Although, Ubuntu may already have the infrastructure to support this..
