Re: Accessible Login in 12.04?

2012-03-15 Thread Hammer Attila

Hy Luke,

CTRL+S works correct, thank you the answer.
I have got some question and experiences, sorri if my questions is 
trivial, but I now using first LightDM with accessible login feature.
1. How can possible choosing different user? If I press arrow keys, 
usual hear give my username password, or hear a button. Or this function 
is not full accessible yet?
Need enabling a GDM style user list in LightDm configuration? Possible 
doing this?
Oldest time in GDM login screen all awailable users present default a 
list, with possible choose required user to log in. If pressed ENTER key 
the selected user, possible write password, and switch session.


2. If I try using flat review in the Unity greeter, I think Orca is 
freezing. I unable to debug Orca level this situation yet. Possible 
changing local Orca execution command to generate Orca a debug.out file, 
or this is already known issue?


3. If I activate indicator menu in Unity greeter with F10 key, choosing 
some menu items and press ESCAPE key, the menue is doesn't leave, or 
Orca not refresh the screen content. My braille display this is absolute 
presenting.


4. What the difference with Unity Greeter and LightDm gtk greeter? 
LightDm Gtk greeter is possible using, this greeter more accessible?

RFC, disable the HUD for accessible installs.

2012-03-15 Thread Luke Yelavich
Hi all,
With all the discussion recently about the hud, and how its not accessible, 
I've been looking at the hud code for Unity 2D, investigating why its not 
accessible. It turns out that the Unity 2D devs did indeed do their part in 
making sure the hud is accessible as possible, however the results, whilst 
being indicated as buttons, do not have any text spoken. This is because the 
Unity 2D devs decided to use a text string different to what visually gets 
shown, for various reasons. The problem is, that this text string coming from 
the hud service process is currently always an empty string.

Setting about working out an alternative, I realized that at this late stage of 
precise development, this could not be properly solved without getting a fair 
number of exceptions in the form of feature freeze exceptions, UI freeze 
exceptions, as well as getting strings translated. In addition, I have not yet 
been able to come up with a way to audibly indicate hud search results. Sure I 
have an idea, but I am not sure if there should be more detail.

So at this point, I think we'd be better off disabling the hud for screen 
reader installs, due to the above. I.e, since we don't have time to work out an 
audible representation of hud results, and get it implemented and tested, I 
think disabling the hud is a better course of action. I'd rather have the hud 
available when its fully accessible with results that Orca users can 
understand, than have a half-baked accessible implementation that could confuse 
users.

I will start a discussion about how we could best represent hud results in 
another thread.

The reason why that doesn't work is due to the way gsettings works. Gsettings 
supports multiple backend data storage formats, one of which is dconf. Dconf is 
the default data storage format, which is a database stored at the system/user 
level. When gsettings wants to use dconf, it communicates via dbus to a dconf 
service process that runs as the user. This dconf service process makes the 
requested changes. So the above doesn't work, because there is no dconf service 
running as the lightdm user when you are logged into the system as another user.

I have seen this myself. I suspect either there is some caching going on 
somewhere, or the gsettings dconf backend can read the database itself, but 
cannot write.

Yes, when the screen reader profile is enabled, this key now gets set. That was 
one of the changes in the updated casper package.

Control + S should work in the unity-greeter, however there are some weird 
focus issues when unity-greeter first loads, which for some reason prevent 
control + S from working. If you tab to the session selection box, and 
shift-tab back to the password prompt or login button, and then press Control + 
S, Orca should load. When you press Control + S, the screen reader will be 
active for every subsequent use of unity-greeter, until its turned off again.

Re: Possible some time gsettings-data-convert doing mistake with keybinding preferences?

2012-03-15 Thread Hammer Attila

Hy,

Because I haven't got other ydea some time why stored invalid keybinding 
settings in .gconf/apps/metacity folder, I reported the prewious wrote 
problem with Metacity related:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/metacity/+bug/955876

If anybody known the right component, please change the report. For 
example now again forgotted Metacity the general keybindings, and the 
described error is present.
I again removed the .gconf/apps/metacity folder, and next restart 
keybindings works again.

Re: Accessible Login in 12.04?

2012-03-15 Thread Hammer Attila

Hy,

I see happened an upgrade with Casper package, to migrate LightDm a11y 
settings with GSettings, because Unity Greeter using GSettings.


When I try use an installed system in terminal the sudo -u lightdm 
gsettings set com.canonical.unity-greeter screen-reader false command, I 
get following error:
hammera@hammera-Satellite-L300:~$ sudo -u lightdm gsettings set 
com.canonical.unity-greeter screen-reader false


** WARNING **: Command line `dbus-launch 
--autolaunch=57457bea3de3d18c6e5b5034000d --binary-syntax

hammera@hammera-Satellite-L300:~$

Look what the result if I run sudo -u lightdm gsettings get 
com.canonical.unity-greeter screen-reader command:
hammera@hammera-Satellite-L300:~$ sudo -u lightdm gsettings get 
com.canonical.unity-greeter screen-reader

false

During installation this GSettings key with LightDm are setting properly?
How can possible enable an installed Ubuntu 12.04 system the screen 
reader support in login screen if this error is present? Temporary need 
sighted assistance?
Alan, when you tested the accessible login with screen reader when you 
reported the proper bug, how can enabled this function?
