The solution is to manually build your own kernel from a vanilla source, along with all the problems that entails.
There's also the RH eMRG rt kernel which is built on substantially newer sources. You'll need to rebuild it yourself (make an RPM build tree, do rpm -i on the source RPM, rpmbuild -ba on the specfile): ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/5Server/en/RHEMRG/SRPMS/kernel-rt-2.6.33.7-rt29.47.el5rt.src.rpm Then you have a kernel that has those newer features and has the integration testing with the other versions of packages installed on the system; using the yum local install, you can get automatic depsolving, too, just in case it has odd dependencies. Or you could get the newer Oracle kernel built for Oracle's RHEL rebuild. Vanilla isn't always best. Sometimes you want chocolate, or butter pecan. Some might joke that RHEL's kernel is rocky road..... and others might call it heavenly hash. Either way, it can be had for CentOS 5 without a whole lot of pain, and in a package system friendly manner.
