I'm back on the fresh install system after changing the values to 24 
instead of 16 and the refresh problem seems to be moot for now.

I don't know if just increasing the settings was enough to disable DRI 
and make X work again or not.

I like the clarity (user factor or actual) with the settings set higher 
depth.

How would I know if DRI is active or not! Below is the output from 
lsmod. Is there another program that reveals more info related to the X 
server related problems?

I'll keep the NoAccel option in mind if some refresh problem surfaces. 
Also, out of curiousity, I'll check those bug report references.

Thanks for the lead! I hope the fix for this error surfaces also.
