Hi Jonathan,
Thanks - the compiz --replace command made the ezoom plugin
work. However, I can't get the zoom area to track the focus
even though the checkbox for it is checked in preferences.Â
This feature would be really helpful as I get lost easily
without it. Anyone else use this plugin?
You will have to press alt f2 then type compiz --replace
this will use compiz as the windowmanager and you can
then use it. Please let me know if you have any other
questions.

I tried to enable the Compiz enhanced
zoom plugin with Sonar LXDE in virtualbox under
Windows , but it didn't work even after a restart.Â
Has anyone gotten something like this to work?
Update with my testing. I ran the system monitor
and my system didn't
crash and I could see everything in it no problem.
I think the power
icon is an indecator that isn't installed. I would
check that and see if
there is a power indecator.
