I have a two CentOS systems.

* A fanless VIA C6 system which provides network and telephony services
  on my home network.  I use the stock kernel on this system.

* A Thecus N5550 NAS.  I use kernel-ml from ELRepo (along with a couple
  of hardware-specific modules for GPIO & LED setup).  I use the "one-
  shot" LED triggers for drive activity LEDs, and they weren't added
  until sometime after kernel 3.0.

Sometimes there's nothing left to do but crash and burn...or die trying.
