any review for Orca with Ubuntu precise beta 2
Has any one tryed the latest Ubuntu precise beta2? I remember that people had reported Unity 2d having issues with Orca not reading out the menus with alt + f1 and the launcher? Is it a reality, did somme one manage to reproduce the issue? if yes, what is the current status? Happy hacking.

Possible Casper ubiquity-hooks/30-accessibility script doesn't copying existing user customized Orca settings in the target system /var/lib/lightdm folder
Hy, I looked casper source package the ubiquity-hooks/30-accessibility script. I see the script not copying existing user already customized Orca settings in the target system /var/lib/lightdm/.local/share folder, new created username home directory the copying happening right. I reported this issue, and attach a small patch with doing this function, similar with oldest casper packages with /var/lib/gdm folder. Report link is following: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/968929 If anybody would like, please give this bug with confirmed status, or click the does this bug affect you direct link and click the change button the form: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/968929/+affectsmetoo Have possibility to commit this patch after beta freeze is lifted?

I need debugging Orca eoutput when Unity greeter start the screen reader. It is possible?
Hy, Because my machine random time Orca launching and exiting in Unity Greeter, I very would like making a debug.out file to correct determining what happening this situation in Orca level before I report a bug with proper place, Launchpad or upstream. When this problem is happening, this situation Orca only read following messages: Welcome to Orca. Good bye. After this, if I press two time the CTRL+S keystroke, Orca launch correctly, and the login screen are usable, except the user list default selected item is not focused. Unfortunately in /var/crash directory not have any crash file to send automaticaly a report with apport-cli or ubuntu-bug commands. How can possible change running Unity Greeter Orca command to pass the --debug-file=anydebugfile.out parameter? Technical this is possible? Prewious, with oldest GNOME releases possible change Orca launch command with gconftool-2 -s -t string /desktop/gnome/applications/at/visual/exec 'orca' command.

Re: I need debugging Orca eoutput when Unity greeter start the screen reader. It is possible?
Hy, Because I not known better possibility, I change temporary with running hardcoded Orca command in unity-greeter source package with src/menubar.vala file and recompiled Unity Greeter package.

Re: [orca-list] any review for Orca with Ubuntu precise beta 2
This is very serious and I think Canonical is really letting us down. It seems they are not as serious about accessibility as they used to be. I won't download the beta2 in this case. Actually I am in some rural part of India and bandwidth is not good enough for downloading the ISO. That's why I asked for the review and if this is what it comes to then I think I and many others will have to give up Ubuntu unless these crutial things are taken care of. I guess many blind users had infact liked Unity2d and were prepared to shift. But if accessibility is really broken to this extent then I wonder what to expect. I have a daily build of Ubuntu 12.04 on a pen drive and it really works so well that I was hoping to use a very accessible desktop from this summer. Hope this is taken care of soon before the release. It gives me a feeling that this is a very trivial issue for the developers of Unity to solve, because it was all working perfectly just a few days back. Happy hacking. Krishnakant.

Re: [orca-list] any review for Orca with Ubuntu precise beta 2
Remember this is still a beta. I'm not familiar with the Ubuntu development team or community, but if it's similar to other development projects I've been involved with, there's probably a big push to get things fixed and addressed right up until beta 2 is released, so there will be an initial up tick in bugs. This isn't accessibility related but just naturally what happens when any significant amount of code is changed. Now we need to ensure issues are reported, bugs are opened and these issues get addressed before Ubuntu 12.04 is released.

Re: [orca-list] any review for Orca with Ubuntu precise beta 2
This is quite possible and I really hope it is the case. As a matter of fact, all things were so well that I can hardly believe that it could be broken. 'But yes, there is a lot of hast during the final beta release, because after this one, we will just have the Rc before the final version. So hope things will get better. We have a very dedicated Luke who has almost always got things right when it came to Ubuntu. Happy hacking. Krishnakant. On 30/03/12 21:33, Christopher Chaltain wrote: Remember this is still a beta.

Hi Thomas, I have a little confusion when talking about Gnome3.

Re: [orca-list] any review for Orca with Ubuntu precise beta 2
When ou use Gnome classic, you get the old-fashioned menus, like 'places', 'accessories', 'internet', 'sound and media', etc. a press of 'super+d' will minimize all apps, and put your on the desktop, which is just another folder under Gnome 3. For setting system preferences, you'll still use the gnome-control-center app; it's 'system settings' in Trisquel 5.5. I like having all these settings grouped in this way. Typing a filter string will show you only the icons with matching names. HTH, Dave On Sat, 31 Mar 2012, Krishnakant Mane wrote: Hi Thomas, I have a little confusion when talking about Gnome3.
