Do NOT uninstall. The package you need to install is called php-pgsql. You should be able to do a (as root of course or sudo if that is set up)
Yum install php-pgsql
Restart apache and you are good to go.

Subject: Re: [PHP] Having tough time getting php working for postgresql..
Hello
form the php site--
In order to enable PostgreSQL support, --with-pgsql[=DIR] is required when you compile PHP. DIR is the PostgreSQL base install directory, defaults to /usr/local/pgsql. If shared object module is available, PostgreSQL module may be loaded using extension directive in php.ini or dl() function.
The default php instalations on most linux distro's don't come with postgresql enabled !
So you need to unistall the default php version first.
