Thanks for your help, Bernhard by default if you install Ubuntu with the screen reader profile it will take you to the classic gnome interface, not the new Unity layout. Orca is present in both and there are translations of the desktop into German, however I wouldn't be surprised if some of the bits Orca reads are not translated. Some bits of Unity don't work well with Orca yet. Alan. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

Since there are still several issues that need to be fixed in Unity, this was an intentional decision to insure that visually impaired users would have a working desktop. Unity is mostly about looks, and looks do not function well with a screen-reader. If you do install orca and run it in unity, please be aware you will have issues with it. -- Charlie Kravetz Linux Registered User Number 425914 [http://counter.li.org/] Never let anyone steal your DREAM.

Re: Accessibility of Ubuntu 11.04
Hi, Orca works with Unity as well, although there are some problems with accessibility that are already being addressed. Thanks.

Accessibility of Ubuntu 11.04
Hi all, As you probably know, Ubuntu 11.04 has been released with a new Desktop called Unity. I tested the major versions of Ubuntu if they are working probably on my system and what features are supported by Orca. But now, I'm not sure if there's something like Orca in this new Desktop. Could someone tell me if there's a Screenreader in Unity? If so, are there also translations of the user interface in other languages like German?
