Hi. The following chain of events just happened on my machine at work:
* I pressed <Super> to investigate the GNOME Menu Accessbility. * Orca stopped refreshing, no matter what key I pressed, the screen reader appeared to have been hung. * A sighted coworker confirmed that not only Orca was hung, but the whole GNOME desktop was no longer responsive to mouse clicks. * Attempting to log in again failed, because GDM also appeard to sort of have hung. * I tried to restart GDM with "systemctl restart gdm". * This didn't help at all, GDM refused to die. * I manually killed one of the GDM parents. * Now I was able to start gdm again with "systemctl start gdm". * And I was able to login again. * However, there is now no speech output anymore, only Braille. * And GDM started on tty1, which was previously used by me for an ssh session to a remote machine. Prior to this event, GDM was running at tty7. * I have no way to access my ssh session anymore, it is apparently lost. So GDM happily overwrote an in-use text-console. I have absolutely no idea what components fault that is, but this should never have happened! There are so many bugs in this chain of event, I am unable to file any meaningful bug reports from the information I have. All I know is, that I wouldn't want to recommend this sort of "accessibility" to any fellow blind user. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕
