SOLVED!!!

It took me a while to get to it, but it was as simple as entering the
following command:

export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1

before starting NEdit. I have made it part of a script I now use each
time to start NEdit on the laptop.
It seems that Motif has a problem with the ARGB visuals called upon
by X.Org when interacting with the specific hardware on my laptop
(or something similar to that extent).

'XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1' directs the X library to prevent the
interaction of these ARGB visuals with Motif, which solves the
problem perfectly. Now, NEdit performs on my old laptop as
perfectly as it does on my other larger, newer machine. :)
