I found in http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RenderingProject/aiglx the suggestions that I should add: Section "ServerFlags" Option "AIGLX" "off" EndSection Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Disable" EndSection To xorg.conf, and indeed there are no more '(EE)' messages on starting X with both those set.
