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
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?

Re: remote desktop accessibility under gnome with orca
If you are going to access remot machines, what about you get a ssh client and ssh into the other machine? 2014-05-16 14:52 GMT-03:00, Don Raikes : > Hi everyone, > > > > Sorry for the shotgun approach for sending this message, but I need to find > an accessible remote desktop solution for interacting with either linux > (gnome-based) or windows remote systems. > > > > I have a class I am taking over the summer where I will be interacting with > a variety of remotely hosted systems.

Re: innaccessible installer on ubuntu 12.04?
Thank you all. I have read on a blog post about this procedure for 11.04, and didn't know that it would work on 12.04 too. I was waiting for the drumms, but as I didn't hear anything (I am on a noise place), I thought the procedure changed.
