I've had some odd results with X configuration on RHEL 3 and rebuilds after installation that sound like the same thing. Assuming the card really is supported natively, I can usually get things to work as expected by starting the redhat-config-xfree86 tool, going to the advanced tab, and hit the configure button for both the monitor and the video card. In each configure window, hit the "Probe" button. Once that is done, then go back to the basic tab and select the video mode you want and apply. Restart X (log out or reboot) and see if that does it for you. For some reason, the installation's x config routine rarely (if ever?) gets this all right, even if you go through it during the installation and it seems to be the same utility. That's pretty basic, but it has been the solution for me many times in what sounds like the same situation.
