Hello, Now that xrandr 1.3 has panning support again, I have written a small documentation on how this can be used for simple hardware-based screen magnification:
http://brl.thefreecat.org/wiki/Xorg the advantage over compiz-based magnification being that it's completely hardware-driven (except the mouse tracking), thus CPU-free and smooth. Concerning Orca, that could be an option that users might prefer on sluggish machines. Concerning Gnome, the shortcut to cycle modes might be a useful addition. Integrating panning configuration in a nice gui tool would probably be useful too.
