Did Peter validate Paul's writings as divinely inspirational?

I'd say so, 2 Peter 3:
15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him. 16 He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.

Peter compared Paul's letters with the existing Scriptures.

That may or may not be the case. Personally I think the "other" is a later emendation, made after the letters of Paul were accepted as inspired. But that is only my opinion.
