Re: orca immediately quitting in login screen.
Hy, Not full sure this, but I experienced this problem first with Orca 3.4.0, so I think this problem is independent the proposed update. I reported this issue with following report since april 2th: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/971316 Unfortunately Orca debug.out file not showing any interesting informations with help determining why happening this problem. I not known few informations: 1. When Orca exiting in Unity greeter, still checked the screen reader support in A11y related indicator menu? 2. When this problem are happening, temporary doesn't changing the LightDm user screen reader related GSettings key value? I think this is not happening, because if I logging in without screen reader support and log out, Orca launching fine without I need press CTRL+S keystroke.

Re: orca immediately quitting in login screen.
The problem seems to have gone away as mysteriously as it first appeared. Also, the lightdm password entry field now behaves as it should--orca says star for characters typed into it. -D. H.

Unity-3D and accessibility
Hello, I'm highly sight impaired, and the last two years, I was used to use ubuntu 10.4 with orca and the compiz plugins eZoom-Desktop and negativeplugin. Now, i installed ubuntu 12.04 on my desktop and I've some problems. In unity-2d, dash and louncher works well, but i can not zoom and invert colors. Without that two features, it is hard to use my computer for me. In unity-3d, i configured that two plugins and it works well. But, dash, louncher, and the alt+tab task switcher are not spoken by orca and not zoomed. That means, they are nearly unusable for me. I can only open the dash, starting to type and press enter, and hope the right application will start. Is there an aditional package to make unity-3d accessible for orca? Or is it possible to use unity-2d in conjunction with compiz? Hope for help, Nadine -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

Or is it possible to use unity-2d in conjunction with compiz? Hope for help, Nadine unity3d is somewhat accessible with orca, but as you note the dash and some other stuff isn't really working. Zooming doesn't work on the panel and launcher (except for the badly implemented and annoying top bar shadow . . .) because that is all drawn through the nux toolkit which is unaffected by any compiz transforms. I know this is really bad for a huge number of people with mild to moderate vision issues (almost certainly our largest group of users of assistive tools - basically anyone who might wear glasses and enjoy the large print section of the local library) and I will be raising this at the Ubuntu Developer summit next week. unity2d with compiz might be a better strategy, and in fact unity2d with the Wayland compositor might be the real way forward, I have been talking to the wayland developers about accessibility including orca and zoom and text cursor tracking zoom and colour filters, it is important to get this stuff in as early as possible and designed in, rather than tacked on afterwards. With features like the HUD landing broken and the global menus all being checkbox menu items until we got the hint set right and the shortcut overlay being totally inaccessible it is clear that accessibility isn't being designed in early enough to new features and this is creating more unbudgeted work as people try to fix the broken stuff that was never designed to be accessible.
