I attempted to do what you asked, but I'm not sure I succeeded.

There was no xorg.conf file in /etc/X11.
I created one with the following contents:

Section "ServerLayout"
             Option "AIGLX" "false"
EndSection

(that indenting was done with a tab, but I was unable to use tabs in
this comment, so the tab is represented with spaces here)

I rebooted the system, but it hung with the Ubuntu screen with five red dots underneath the word Ubuntu. The keyboard was still active (I could toggle the numlock LED) but I could not change to a text terminal to login.
I rebooted and attempted to enter video safe mode. This eventually got me back to a text login where I was able to delete the xorg.conf file and get things back to the way they were.

A side effect of booting in video safe mode is that it created a
xorg.conf.(something I forget but implying video safe mode) file.

Did I create the correct section for the AIGLX option? Should I try
adding that to the safe mode xorg.conf file and renaming that to
xorg.conf?
