Verified the problem exists on 7.3 (and Suse 7.2) today.  FYI, also tried 
becker's starfire driver, to no avail.
Comment 2 bil_hendrix 2003-07-10 20:08:18 UTC 
Also tried kernel.org's 2.4.21, to no avail.

Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of
the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem
persists.

The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, 
and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in
the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/
