GNOME with Compiz/KWin4 style Zoom? [SOLVED]
IMO the Zoom plugin is probably the most godsend of plugins in Compiz. I recently found out that both Windows 7 and KDE4 also have similar Zoom functionalities. Does gnome have a composited zoom feature with key/mouse bindings, and how can I use it? Also is there a desktop-agnostic version that I can use with my tiling window managers? Thank you!

Working as fast as compiz/kwin ? Sadly, no. You can try cairo-compmgr; the last version has a functional zoom plugin, but it uses *a lot* of cpu power. If anyone know any other way please share it, it's the only thing which is worth of compiz.

Wow it must be because it is xrender composited rather than OpenGL. /me looks forward to Gnome 3.0 
thanks
