Found out a couple of useful shortcuts/tricks while working on my Ubuntu laptop (8.04/Hardy Heron).
Press "Windows" key and move mouse scroll button downwards to get an enlarged display of your desktop. Move the cursor to the borders of the screen to travel from side to side/top to bottom of the enlarged screen. To zoom out scroll in the reverse direction
Place cursor on any active window/panel, press "Alt" and move scroll button downwards to make that window/panel transparent. To turn it back to opaque scroll in the reverse direction.
My "Visual Effects" setting is set to Normal in Appearance Preferences. (System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual Effects)
