makes it worse than normal software render.
It results in hanging X without disabling Compsite/DownloadFromScreen.
Disabling Composite, DownloadFromScreen results in fully corrupted

corrupted (moving a window over another leaves traces in the inactive
windows behind).
The remaining acceleration
[ 268.727] (**) MGA(0): EXA: Disabling Composite operation (RENDER
acceleration)
[ 268.727] (**) MGA(0): EXA: Disabling UploadToScreen
[ 268.727] (**) MGA(0): EXA: Disabling DownloadFromScreen
[ 268.727] (II) EXA(0): Offscreen pixmap area of 8474624 bytes
[ 268.727] (II) EXA(0): Driver registered support for the following
operations:
[ 268.727] (II) Solid
[ 268.727] (II) Copy
[ 268.727] (==) MGA(0): Backing store enabled
