The soundcard didn't work, and USB went wonky. So I tried to build a new kernel, and that was it, almost every module broke. I messed about for ages, but never got it right. I fixed it by installing Slackware 10 instead... I am sure with RHEL there is an extra step somewhere to build a kernel properly.
