This "Permission denied" problem has been reported a couple of times
now. It seems to occur if the DRM kernel module is compiled with a
different compiler version than the kernel. AFAIK no one has bothered to
find out why so far. You can either compile the kernel yourself or find
out which compiler RedHat used and use the same one for the module.

Liam, could you add this to the "Trouble Shooting" section in the FAQ?
I'm getting tired of answering the same question over and over again ;-)
