In RH7.1, I don't have to do that on these cards. If you upgrade to RH7.3 you might see some of these issues you are seeing now with XFree86-4.2.0 Check the status of your video card in the RH compatability list. My card is a bad card and yours could be too.
For drm, I don't know but a 'man Xconfigurator' might have something. I checked real quick but nothing smacked me in the back of the head. Doh! This newer version might not have been a benefit for your equipment like it hasn't been for mine. I chose to do workarounds verses buying a linux friendly video card for 4.2.0.
