I assume you are booting, by default, into runlevel 5. Have you tested booting into runlevel 3 and then invoking 'startx' from the CLI, noting any errors that may be displayed? With regards to the kernel-ml package, unless it is a packaging error on our part, it will not be meaningful to open a bug report against it. From what you have described, it reads as if you are experiencing a problem with user-land software -- hence my suggestion, above, to try booting to CLI mode. As for updating the Intel 'X' driver and associated software packages, I am not sure who is currently maintaining them . . . perhaps the best way forward would be for you to open an RFE against the xorg-x11-drv-intel-2.20.3-2.el6.elrepo package and ask for it to be updated.
