Description Carlos Eduardo Rodrigues Diógenes 2007-08-02 19:28:29 UTC 
If the magnifier is started without any arguments and it's source display is changed by an external application, like orca, it will crash.

For more details see bug #462044

This makes the crash go away.  Thanks!

However, I'm still getting the bad bounds requests.  Anywhere I move the mouse generates them and I still don't have magnification.  Any ideas?

As can be seen in http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462044#c17 we have some idea about the bad bounds requests.

I will mark this bug as FIXED. If someone still have some problem due this, please re-open it.
