Without the NoDCC "work-around", Xorg 1.5.2 goes into an infinite CPU loop.
With NoDCC, Xorg 1.5.2 locks up the machine hard, requiring a power cycle.
Copying X.Org X Server 1.4.0.90 and the associated /usr/lib/xorg directory
from Ubuntu 8.04 to the Ubuntu 8.10 machine allows the NoDCC work-around to
work without locking up the machine hard.
