Ah, sorry, I misunderstood. I have never tested this solution, but this is how 
I would do it: in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, at line 92 is where rhgb is started. 
You only need to add a line:

rhgb-client --details=yes

after rhgb is started. Maybe you will have to add a

sleep N

where N is replaced by the appropriate number of seconds that you must wait 
for the X server to start. So do something like that:

/usr/bin/rhgb
sleep 5
/usr/bin/rhgb-client --details=yes

for example. Good luck!
