Nvidia driver fixed the problem. Thank you El Repo! Where do I send you $10? (Seriously. This saved me so much time.)

The X server seems to be loading the NOUVEAU driver properly (based on the contents of Xorg.0.log), but I have one X11 application that doesn't work correctly; it runs as though XSynchronized is always True, even though it's explicitly set to False in the code. In other words, its redraw behavior is god-awful; worse because it auto-redraws once per second for little apparent reason. And some of the windows draw with artifacts if they're covered and uncovered.

This is definitely new behavior on this new computer (the previous computers, also using the Nouveau driver with GeForce 7600 cards, did not seem to have this behavior).
