I don't know what kernel is shipped with CentOS 5 or Fedora 7... I have also encountered some problems and normally find that compiling the guest kernel on the host (or a setup/system similar to it) tends to work best (but not always). I have also had some problems recently with guest kernels >= 2.6.21, where the same guest config works with 2.6.20.x. Both on fully up to date hosts (running 2.6.21.5 + skas3) I haven't had time to investigate further, and doesn't look like I will be able to in the near future... sorry.
