Fred:

Please post the results (or point us to the URL) of the page returned  
by:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

On a similar, but not identical system (dual AMD 32-bit and RH9), I  
ended up compiling Apache, PHP 5.x and MySQL 4.1x in order to get all  
APIs and modules to agree. IIRC, PHP 5.x prefers the mysqli_  
interface to the deprecated mysql_ interface (the new one supports  
many more features. including transactions for InnoDB tables).
