How can I disable gzip in apache on Ubuntu 10.10?

I'm trying to figure out how to disable or uninstall gzip from my Ubuntu server. This is to support a package of buggy software that breaks when it's trying to do a crazy call to a css file (don't ask, the code architecture is horrifying). The support team suggested that I uninstall gzip from my server to fix the problem.

I see this in my phpinfo();

HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING gzip,deflate,sdch

But I can't figure out where in Apache to set or disable this thing. I did find the below stuff in a file called magic when trying to find where deflate was being used (my research indicated deflate and gzip are linked somehow):

0       string          \037\235        application/octet-stream        x-compress    # gzip (GNU zip, not to be confused with [Info-ZIP/PKWARE] zip archiver)    0       string          \037\213        application/octet-stream        x-gzip    # According to gzip.h, this is the correct byte order for packed data.    0       string          \037\036        application/octet-stream    #    # This magic number is byte-order-independent.    #    0       short           017437          application/octet-stream

I just want to turn gzip off for this application to see if my page will stop throwing a 416 HTTP error.
