There should be plenty of .ly files included in the RPM,
look in /usr/doc/packages/lilypond/examples/ or something similar.

Strange! What happens if you create a file test.tex with the following
contents:
---------------------------
\documentclass[a4paper]{article}
\begin{document}
Hello!
\large
this is a
\normalsize
test
\end{document}
-------------------------------------
and run 'latex test.tex' followed by 'xdvi test.dvi'?

Yes, the direct Postscript output is in a very experimental stage.
ly2dvi (or other TeX based processing) is the only practically
useful way at the moment.

Check out the second last Q&A of
http://appel.lilypond.org/wiki/index.php3?LilyPondFaqs
I don't use RedHat myself, so I have no idea how the Liliypond
RPM sets up these things.
