Re: orca and firefox
Is this on voxin side or speech dispatcher communication with voxin? I use emacspeak with voxin and got no errors... I suspect that this is coming from speech dispatcher. Any idea if this bug is tracked somewhere?

Can you try to use espeak instead voxin as a test? On 08/19/2015 04:45 PM, Lucas Radaelli wrote: Could you guys confirm the version of speech dispatcher that you are using? Orca stoped talking to me twice in a period of less than a hour and just returned when I killed speech dispatcher and restarted everything. I assume that this is speech dispatcher's fault, as I had the same problem with chromevox when running it with speech dispatcher. On 19/08/2015 16:06, José Vilmar Estácio de Souza wrote: Hi Lucas. In my opinion 3.16 is better but I am not sure if it is possible to build in ubuntu 14.04. A while back I posted a message in the linux-accessivel list with instructions on how to build orca from git.

I am also running orca with speech dispatcher + voxin and the experience is very close to what we get on windows with NVDA. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

You can install Orca 3.16.2 for 14.04 from the Ubuntu Accessibility Dev PPA, ppa:ubuntu-accessibility-dev/ppa. To add it and update, do the following: * In a terminal, run sudo apt-add-repository ppa:accessibility-dev/ppa * sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade And you should then get latest stable Orca. This will likely be updated once Orca 3.18 comes out. Luke -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
accessiblity-dev ppa
I am running ubuntu 14.04.3 and have upgraded the accessibility to the version in this ppa. I notice that now I have problems runnig a console using strictly brltty. Once unity has come up (or evne the login screen) it will not show me things in a console unless I restart brltty. THis also occurs if I am in a console and something changes on the unity desktop such as the screensaver becoming active. THis was not happening before I upgraded to the ppa versions. A simple example is to shut down the computer, bring it back up and once it gets to the login screen just try a ctrl-alt-f1 to go to the first console. In my case it continues to show the unity login screen. To see teh console I have to login from memory and then restart brltty.
