how exactly where you planning on managing out-of-tree kernel drivers otherwise ?
btw, since this is a stable distro you are using, the chances are that the same
driver will work through the life of the product. Try this command :
/sbin/weak-modules and register the driver you have against that. Then reinstall
the updated kernel and the driver should move along.
I shall try and do some more specific docs on this, in the centos wiki, over the
next few days.
