Hi Christopher:
When you say you are working with "the magnifier" I assume you mean gnopernicus in magnification mode.
There are a couple of things which may be responsible for your problems. Since you report that 'dual-head magnification without Xinerama didn't work', then I assume you are not running the latest version of the magnifier, but that you are using an Xserver with the 'DAMAGE' extension. There were a couple of bugs fixed in the 'gnome-mag' package which probably affect this. If you can upgrade to gnome-mag version 0.11.13 or later, you should be able to run without Xinerama, using 'source' and 'target' displays which differ. We don't actually test gnome-mag with Xinerama, we recommend using it with dual-head instead, but you are correct that there were blocking bugs in recent versions for which Xinerama may be a reasonable workaround.
The 'one side is gray' problem is likely to be bug #164371, which was only fixed very recently. You'll need gnome-mag 0.12.0 (released *today* !) for this - but if you don't use Xinerama, you won't see this bug with dual-head magnification.
If doing this is impractical, let us know, as there are a couple of other things which may allow you to work around this until you can upgrade.
best regards
Bill
