I only recently found out that the Kmods SIG is producing Fedora flavored EL kernels. I installed 6.6 yesterday and it has resolved all my issues with a device I have that wasn't being detected and it also had no issues with the NVIDIA dkms drivers I use.
I just wanted to say thank you to the Kmods SIG team and know that the work is appreciated. CentOS should have a blog post on this and be promoting it on twitter as an option for EL users that need a newer kernel (I see ELREPO recommended a lot, but I had many DKMS issues with it).

Would you mind elaborating on the "many DKMS issues" with ELRepo kernels?
Thanks, Akemi
I often would get DKMS build failures on the Kernel-LT from elrepo for the NVIDIA driver.

ELRepo's kernel-lt is 6.1 (as opposed to kernel-ml which is 6.13 at the moment). You have installed SIG's kernel 6.6. I wonder if this version difference (6.1 vs 6.6) is the reason why ...
