Does adding:

I fear I may never know ...

As part of the demo, I donated the machine to one of the other users
in the group. I might be able to get him to try it. However I did get
X to run thanks to Phil's suggestion.

I added: Option no_accel to the newport driver section of xorg.conf
and it made the problem (and unfortunately xaa) go away.

Thanks for your help.
