problems after update
Hi, does anyone know what the smallest drive is you can use for install. I used a two gb which worked fine. However after getting the large update something like 300 packages, I had the following problem. First I didn't get any low space warning, however after restarting the system things didn't work. I got the log in sound. But when I logged in I got no sound and my daughter said the screen was blank with the mouse pointer in the middle. Also how long should it take to format a 40 gb drive.

Re: updates using orca
Hi. I use apt-get in the terminal to update my system since I loose speech when I sudo in a gtk app. Hopefully, the at-spi design decision that tied at-spi to the user will be fixed. For now, try sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade Kenny On Sat, Sep 16, 2006 at 10:55:00AM -0500, mike coulombe wrote: > Hi, is it possible to get updates using orca. > Maybe I am doing something wrong, because pressing enter on update doesn't > seem to do anything. >Mike. > > -- > Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list > Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
Re: trying to get updates
If i'm not totally mistaken here, the syntax should be: apt-get install gnome-orca Hope this helps. /Krister On Sat, 2006-09-16 at 12:09 -0500, mike coulombe wrote: > Hi, this time when I ran update it said to use the package manager, > because software had to be removed. > I tried that but got no speech. > Is there a way to use apt-get to get the latest orca. > If so how.

trying to get updates
Hi, this time when I ran update it said to use the package manager, because software had to be removed. I tried that but got no speech. Is there a way to use apt-get to get the latest orca. If so how. I tried the following. apt-get install orca. It said reading package then package not found.

updates using orca
Hi, is it possible to get updates using orca. Maybe I am doing something wrong, because pressing enter on update doesn't seem to do anything. Mike. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

query on accessibility of KDE with orca
hi henrik and other brillient people on the list. I want to know what is the current status of KDE accessibility API. I browsed the accessibility page for KDE but could not get any relevant information. I had already posted henric on this issue. this is a bit urgent because I am doing a presentation as I mentioned some time ago, for accessibility on a nation wide base. it will be done on Monday, 18th of september. I want to know if there is accessibility api built in with the KDE desktop. I heard that AT-SPI/ATK is being ported to k desktop. how well can this work? how easy it is currently to build a screen reader for KDE? and how is oarca shaping up in this context? what is the current status on that?? I often read a lot of accessibility talk on the qt web site. I am basically a gnome user so don't quite know the insides of KDE. but I have the impression that KDE is built using qt? is that right? if so then how much accessibility will be available if QT becomes accessible. Please provide me some details as it will help me make visually handicap community understand that there is no fear in using linux and more so ubuntu linux because it is leading as far as desktop convinience and comfort of use is concerned. secondly we are planning to start a screen reader project for kde and will like to merge it with kubuntu. so please provide some details. thanks, Krishnakant. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

Um, I'm not sure if the communication went alright.
