I'm guessing I'll just have to bite the bullet, install FC2 and see what happens. We already have a DL320, and the fans at full speed (at start of boot) are bruttle on the ears.
Somehow I see this as an ongoing problem. Those of us who don't need the fully supported Suse or RH Enterprise versions, and are looking for low cost alternatives (I'm in public education - where there is NO money) will have these kind of problems with drivers.

Well, can you manually install the provided drivers (for enterprise RH) in FC2??
Not if they're kernel level drivers. RHEL 3 and previous, like FC1, are based on Linux 2.4, while FC2 is based on Linux 2.6.
There is *no* binary-level compatibility between the two versions: even source code has to be ported, which is not trivial.
