• Hello Mark,

  which kernel you use? Sometimes it is only an „information“.

• You need at least a newer kernel.

  If you like you can try out

  http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php <http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php>

  With 3.10 I’m personal unsure kernel-lt-3.10.104-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm <http://elrepo.reloumirrors.net/kernel/el6/x86_64/RPMS/kernel-lt-3.10.104-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm>

  But got here CentOS with 4.11.3 running quiet well. kernel-ml-4.11.3-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm <http://elrepo.reloumirrors.net/kernel/el6/x86_64/RPMS/kernel-ml-4.11.3-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64.rpm>

  Hopefully that works for you.

• Hello,

  Good to see more recent kernels, but if you can install such kernel, it’s because you’ve already installed CentOS on the system, and that could be the difficult part, couldn’t it?
  Fedora has respins of their latest release + kernel updates (and more), I wonder if we could find such respin of CentOS 6/7, instead of a DYI (*)?
