[CentOS] Kernel 3.10 and CentOS 5

[b.j. mcclure]

We have one workstation running the elrepo kernel-lt because that was
the only way I could get usb functionality.  Motherboard is a Gigabyte
990 chipset and stock centos kernel seemed to recognize the chip set and
usb chips but gave failure to enumerate errors.  Tried all fixes found
on google without success.

So far only drawback I have found to elrepo kernel is one cannot use
kmod-nvidia with it.  Building the driver from source the old way works
fine.  The kernel-lt without the nvidia driver would not find the second
monitor.  Stock kernel did.

CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
