If you boot from the stock RH 8.0 SMP kernel does it work?
If so then it ain't a hardware problem, or a compatability problem,
it is a kernel config problem.

Are you using the source for the kernel from RedHat?
If yes, then "cd /usr/src/linux; make clean"
then "make xconfig"
then load the config found in /boot/config-* (for the version you have)
Then just remove the few things you don't want, or change the "M" to "Y"
for a few things, and don't get to drastic.  build your kernel and mods 
and then try that.  If it works you can do a make xconfig again and try
removing a few more things.

-Ben.
