Thank you so much for your assistance. I was able to get an older version of
Labtools installed with Impact on Centos 6.5 and figure out the driver issues.
After doing all of this I was able to bring the N210 back to a usable state.

I would focus on trying to get Impact working in your environment.
The Xilinx support forums may be a more fruitful avenue for that part of the
problem.
