Agree, desperate attempt.

I can see very limited choice of distros on HP site supported by providing any compiled modules. So... dubious.

Even if this could be made to appear to work you would be risking
corruption and crashes since the module was built against a different
kernel which potentially means different struct layouts, different
function parameters etc etc.

I'm afraid without driver source there isn't much anyone other than HP
can do. The best you can hope for is to contact HP and ask them to
support Xen4CentOS by providing a suitably compiled module.
