Bug Description
When starting the magnifier/zoom in Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 Trusty from the universal access tools it works for a short time. The zoom factor is by default set to 2.0. After a few seconds the magnifier freezes the whole display output/crashes the X session more or less.
The crash especially appears when the Options button get clicked.
I actually have no more detailed information, I will try to figure out more information via the logs.
I am running Ubuntu on a Nettop with an ATI Radeon HD7410M. GNOME Shell/GNOME3 works completely normal. The magnifier also works well when running on 13.10 Saucy. So I think it must be a problem in Trusty.
To reproduce this problem:
Start the zoom functionallity from Settings -> Universal Access to get it really crashing just click the options button in the zoom section.
I will add further information from logs or so when I have some. I hope my description is understandable, when there are open questions please ask.
Best Regards
