I don't know much about RH as a desktop, I generally only use it as a
headless server. (I do have one RH desktop but it's 7.3).

If there's no easy way, then the hard way is to edit /etc/modules.conf.
Here's mine:
[jack@chupacabra jack]$ cat /etc/modules.conf

probeall scsi_hostadapter usb-storage
options i810fb xres=800 hsync1=32 hsync2=48 vsync1=50 vsync2=70 vram=2
