I almost always use the latest stock kernel, with one memorable
exception.
I had a laptop which would not boot until I unplugged it and
removed the battery. The reason was a faulty mouse driver,
and the fix was to remove the mouse driver module prior to
shutdown. The problem was that the mouse driver was compiled
into the kernel. So I used the SRPM, changed the option to
install the mouse driver as a module and recompiled. Following
the directions on the Centos wiki was pretty easy.
