I think not, because the fglrx module seems loaded. Snip from dmesg;
dmesg | grep fglrx
[ 14.328262] fglrx: module license 'Proprietary. (C) 2002 - ATI Technologies, Starnberg, GERMANY' taints kernel.

And if the module was compiled against the wrong kernel it wouldn't get loaded...

I do however have some fglrx related files in lib - should I remove l-r-m for the 2.6.24 kernel? Even though I can't believe these would mess it up.
