Hi,
I'm assuming that you are using an amd64 system, so a modprobe of fglrx should be looking for /usr/X11R6/lib64/modules/dri/fglrx_dri.so and is not. This is just a guess, but in each users .bashrc (or something similar, based on term used) is there an export LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH=/usr/lib32/modules/dri. If there is this means that you have to remove it, because it will cause the system to only look at the 32 bit libraries.
If this isn't the case could you please post the LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo when acting as a superuser.
John
