Thank you very much. Now the module is loaded but I still don't see any 
devices.

[root at hume bin]# modprobe i7core_edac
[root at hume bin]# edac-ctl --status
edac-ctl: drivers are loaded.
[root at hume bin]# ls -s /sys/devices/system/edac/mc
total 0

Also, where would I go to find out what driver I should be using for 
other systems? The best introduction I've found so far doesn't seem to 
cover setup:
     http://www.admin-magazine.com/Articles/Monitoring-Memory-Errors

And the best documentation I've found so far doesn't mention the driver 
I just installed on its "supported hardware" chart.

Am I being optimistic to think that I should be generally able to 
identify and/or log ECC error correction events with EL6?

Thanks,

Ben
