Screen magnifier not working properly in GDM

Link to original bug (#621665)
Description
When enabling the screen magnifier it will only show the wallpaper magnified. The login box or other buttons will not show in the magnified area. Since the accessibility button is on the right side, covered by the magnified area it's impossible to turn of screen magnification again since it won't show in the magnified area (clicking the spot where it should've been is not possible either). I am using a fresh install of ubuntu lucid with latest updates.
Using Intel945GMA with default driver.
How can I at least turn it off again?
I've been looking in gconf under /apps/gdm/simple-greeter/accessibility as both my user and root, but all options are set to false. I guess they're set as the "gdm" user to which I have no access.
