To do exactly as you ask, you need

Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
Option "NoAccel" "true"

as just selecting

Option "AccelMethod" "none"

selects the default backend and disables its acceleration.

No, UXA (and by extension UXA/none) requires the extra dependency of
libdrm_intel.  The default Option "AccelMethod" "none" itself does not.
