    It's likely that the driver is in as a kernel module. The usual way to get around this would be to install a kernel of appropriate version from its sources.

    This is a little more complex than installing from yum, but it's not a technically challenging task. Get the latest kernel source from The Linux Kernel Archives, complete with build/install instructions.
