I'm running CI on several Dreamhost servers and don't have any special setup to get them to run properly. When I added a site at first I didn't have PHP 5 running and I had to run in query string mode until I figured that fact out, but after I switched to PHP 5 it ran just fine. From your notes it looks like running query strings isn't helping you either, and you're running PHP 5, so I dont' see any major gotchas. I'm running extra web security, not running fastcgi...
This is my config file, FWIW...
Code:
<?php if (!defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
$config['base_url'] = "http://mysite.com/";
$config['index_page'] = "index.php";
