I have tried the patched module on a machine with:

and it seems to work.  It selects UXA acceleration by default.  As such,
the TearFree option is not needed.  Perhaps if the detected device causes
UXA accleration to be selected, perhaps the TearFree option could default
to "Off" for those as well?  Then, no "xorg.conf" will be needed.

As it is, it's fine for a live-USB stick to have X Just Work(tm) when
booting some random machine.
