Cool!

It installs and runs well for me. It seems responsive enough, though I 
don't have much experience with magnifiers. There are also some issues:

1. I don't get a gnopernicus settings window so I can't change settings.

2. The magnification window only fills part of the screen. If you cut 
the screen in 8 sections, 4 wide and 2 high, my magnifier appears in the 
top row, second column. I have a wide screen display though, so that 
might be the cause.

3. It doesn't magnify stuff that is hidden under the magnification area.

Other than that, it seems to track the cursor quite well. I'm running 
i386 dapper on an AMD64 system.
