I simply installed CentOS 6.0, downloaded kernel from SL6.1 repo, and 
installed it. Basically this is what was needed to make Intel graphics work, 
I think there were 1-2 other rpms I needed to upgrade too to fix 
dependencies, but this was easy to notice during the kernel install.

This way the system automatically will roll back to pure CentOS when newer 
CentOS 6.1 rpms will be available.
