Will,

Elrepo.org has RPM packages for the proprietary ATI drivers for both SL5 
and SL6 (kmod-fglrx and fglrx-x11-drv) and these are updated monthly as 
ATI release new updates. If you use these packaged drivers, updating is 
as simple as running 'yum update' followed by a reboot.

Hope that helps.
