I have tried quax, which works, but only allows a very small section of the screen (less than one word in some cases). Not a good combination.  I tried kmag, which failed to compile, and dynamag which was even worse.  Any suggestions?  We will be purchasing a large monitor that will be set to a lower resolution, but is there a software solution?

Check out the gnome menu | Preferences | Accessibility | Assistive 
Technology Support, and configure to start magnifier at next logon.  A 
note there says it requires the gnopernicus package installed.
