I simply installed CentOS 6.0, downloaded kernel from

during the kernel install.
If you don't mind passing on some details for me, as I've got a related problem.
you have to install the following from SL 6.1:
- latest kernel (kernel-2.6.32-131.12.1.el6)
- kernel-firmware-2.6.32-131.12.1.el6
- latest xorg-x11-drv-intel (xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.14.0-1)
with dependencies (xorg-x11-drivers)
- latest mesa packages: mesa-dri-drivers, mesa-libGL,
mesa-libGLU (version 7.10-1 at the moment)
- latest libdrm (libdrm-2.4.23-1)
Just got everything re-installed/updated. Had a change in ISPs. Was able to install the kernel and firmware packages as done previously but got in the 'dependency' loop with the xorg* files so I left it alone.
