Maybe because you called the install improperly.
You called it as
# yum install kmod-fglrx-8.29.6-1.2.6.18_1.2798.fc6.i686
and it should be
# yum install kmod-fglrx
You only should (under most circumstances) install by package name and not by the version/arch name.
This allows yum to do it's job and verify versions/architecture/etc.
