Hello again.
I was unsure as to whether or not I should create a new thread or
follow-up on this one, so I decided to play it safe and follow-up.
I installed gnome-shell in my virtual machine (Ubuntu 11.10).
At the login screen, I was presented with session options for GNOME,
Classic GNOME, Classic GNOME (No Effects), Ubuntu, and Ubuntu2D.
it seems that I cannot use screen magnification in GNOME or Classic
GNOME. It did not even seem as though Compiz was running (I am not sure
how to confirm this). However, when I run "compiz --replace" in the Run
Applications dialog, the Unity dock appears and zooming seems to work
(with the exception of the Unity dock).
I'm a bit distraught as I have no idea what to do.
Thanks for any suggestions and input.

Hello, everyone.
Sadly, I must report that this magnification issue persists in Ubuntu
11.10 as well. I tested this under a virtual installation of Ubuntu
11.10 with 3D Acceleration enabled.
I am going to try to install gnome-shell on the VM and see if it works
any better for me.
I know that the needs of all users cannot always be met at first, and
I am appreciative of all of the hard work which is being put into
Unity, but I'm feeling left out right now. :( Sorry. I don't mean to
whine or to complain.
Hopefully this will change in Ubuntu 12.04, or better yet in an update
to Ubuntu 11.10.
I just wanted to write back and to confirm that this still persists in
case there is anyone else out there who was curious.
Take care.
