You can try running XFree86Setup from the command line and re-configuring 
your X server from there. If it still only runs X in low-res, you may 
need to edit the configuration file manually. Check the lines that select 
the amount of memory for your card; some people report that the setup 
program does not always un-comment the line corresponding the the amount 
of video ram on your card, so un-comment the line manually.

You might also want to download the latest version of XFree86 (3.3.3) and 
Superprobe (although I think RH5.0 recognized the Rage Pro).

By the way, I just ran an install of the Red Hat 5.2 distribution with 
the same card and had no problems.

Hope this helps.
