Install the RPM. Uncompress the .tar.gz into /lib/modules/fglrx (so the files are in /lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod/). Build a module for your kernel.
Now run fglrxconfig and create a configuration file. Copy all the other stuff that redhat-xfree86-config does so much nicer, and you're away laughing. Hopefully.
fgl_glxgears doesn't run on my machine (error: Error: couldn't get fbconfig) and I've love to know why. -- CraigBox
