The ELRepo mailing list archive can be accessed via --

http://lists.elrepo.org/pipermail/elrepo/

To determine the correct driver required for the controller, you would
need to find the Vendor:Device ID pairing. FAQ#4 shows how that can be
done --

https://elrepo.org/tiki/FAQ

Once you have that information, I'm sure we could then point you in
the right direction.

Just in case you are not aware, there is a CentOS forum available --
