# cat /etc/redhat-release 
Scientific Linux SL release 5.5 (Boron)

(thinking to myself: curious, I thought I had an ATI card in this machine?)

# lspci | grep -i vga
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE]

It looks to me like it's installed automatically in SL5, unless they've taken it out on versions > SL5.5 (I don't have a trident video card in this particular machine) Perhaps I've misunderstood the question?
