Indeed. I wonder whether there exists some difference between CentOS
kernel and genral kernel from www.kernel.org?
If so, maybe I should download the CentOS kernel source code and patch
it to run PF_RING.
Any help?

My machine used to be installed PF_RING is exactly DELL PowerEdge 1950,
with 8-core CPUs and 4G RAM, 80G disk. I don't think it is out of date.
