That driver is included with the standard kernel installed by
redhat-6.0 kernel version 2.2.5-15, it resides in
/lib/modules/2.2.5-15/net
modprobe should find it without options as its a PCI providing that
PCI devices are set correctly in the BIOS, you can check to see if
the kernel found the card at boottime with;
cat /proc/pci
