I run the same hardware with 3D acceleration working. I think all I had 
to do was tweak '/etc/X11/XF86Config'. I don't recall exactly what I 
changed so here's the file. Good luck.

# XFree86 4 configuration created by redhat-config-xfree86

Section "Files"

# The location of the RGB database.  Note, this is the name of the
# file minus the extension (like ".txt" or ".db").  There is normally
# no need to change the default.
# Multiple FontPath entries are allowed (they are concatenated together)
# By default, Red Hat 6.0 and later now use a font server independent of
# the X server to render fonts.
	RgbPath      "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rgb"
	FontPath     "unix/:7100"
