Comment:

 I couldn't disable the SECURITY extension because the X server crashes if
 I do.  All the others have gone without any visible effect on sugar and
 the activities.

 Reassigning to J5 for merging into pilgrim.

 The updated xorg.conf file is here:

   http://www.codewiz.org/pub/olpc-bernie/xorg.conf

 The relevant snippet is:
 {{{
 Section "Module"
         SubSection "extmod"
                 Option "omit XFree86-DGA"
                 Option "omit XFree86-Misc"
                 Option "omit MIT-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD"
                 Option "omit TOG-CUP"
                 Option "omit Extended-Visual-Information"
         EndSubSection
         Load  "freetype"
         Load  "evdev"
         # Load "record" # Mostly a debugging tool
 EndSection

 Section "Extensions"
         Option  "XTEST" "Disable" # Mostly a debugging tool
         #Option  "SECURITY" "Disable" # CRASH!
         Option  "XC-APPGROUP" "Disable"
         Option  "XINERAMA" "Disable"
