\[ \boxed {\left (x^{2}-6 x +10\right ) y^{\prime \prime }-4 \left (x -3\right ) y^{\prime }+6 y=0} \]

Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.015 (sec). Leaf size: 25

dsolve((x^2-6*x+10)*diff(y(x),x$2)-4*(x-3)*diff(y(x),x)+6*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 

\[ y \left (x \right ) = c_{1} \left (x^{3}-30 x +60\right )+c_{2} \left (\frac {26}{3}+x^{2}-6 x \right ) \]
