This driver was never tested for kernels older than 2.6.32. More
compatibility work would be needed to get it to build and work on
kernel 2.6.18.

I'm wondering if maybe Redhat can provide a backported version as a
separate package? You're probably not the only one asking for this, as
this is a popular driver.
