Red hat 6.1 is old, very very old (almost 5 years) and there has been a
lot of change in the last 5 years. Get yourself a new red hat (9.0) or a
Fedora core 1. It is not because your pc is not new that you have to run
old software (at least not with real software ;)). I would recommend to
install without grafical shell (and certainly no kde or gnome).

These newer versions will probably support your network card.
