I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 (64-bit), kernel 2.6.31-19-generic, fresh "out
of the box" default install, meaning "normal" visual effects.

Ctl + scrolling:
- in Firefox, gives the visual zoom in/out.

- in Evolution, if I'm scrolling over a message in the bottom (preview)
panel of the inbox, gives the visual zoom in/out.  If scrolling over an
email I received, and clicked on to open in a separate window, it gives
the visual zoom in/out.  If scrolling over an email I'm composing, in a
separate window, it does nothing.

Alt + scrolling:
- in Firefox, does nothing.
- in Evolution, does nothing.

"Special" key (has a Micro$oft logo on it on this keyboard) + scrolling:
- the entire desktop zooms in and out!
