Marcus: Try removing "fglrx, 8.543, 2.6.24-21-generic, x86_64: installed
(original_module exists)" if you get the 'Saw signal 11' error in your
Xorg log. It appears (perhaps) to be the conflict between the module
built for the old kernel that causes the module for the new kernel to
fail.

Alejandro: As for reinstalling the vboxdrv driver - setup
(/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup) failed for me with a compile error that's
also been seen in some versions of fglrx (although I don't have the
references to hand, something about too many parameters on one file),
which is what also led me to removing the modules compiled for previous
kernels from dkms.

It seems, from the previous couple of entries, that it is the
'installed' status of modules for previous kernels that causes the
problem. Maarcus' fails because his 2.6.24 is 'installed', but
alejandro's works because it's just 'built' not 'installed'. Of course
this also means that you can't revert to the old 2.6.24 kernel without
backing out of these module changes, and definitely points to a conflict
in the way different kernel versions of modules are handled by 2.6.27.
