As I don't have the latest firefox or latest Orca, I tried to use Lynx
in Ubuntu Feisty.
However the help screen seems to obscure the pages I am trying to read
and using the up and down arrows doesn't appear to scroll through the
text properly.
Could anyone suggest a text or graphical web browser that I can access
web pages better when I run Feisty which is on my Laptop and when I
connect to the Internet?
I tried to run Speakup but the problem is I can only seem to get
Espeak to Say "Hello" when I run spd-say hello.
issuing sudo modprobe speakup_sftsyn seems to be silent.
I did manage to run #Speakup once so I am wondering if I am having
this problem because I just switched out of my Text console without
shutting down Speakup so am wondering if the system is treating
Speakup as if it is a running copy which is why I am not getting
speech when doing the command to run Speakup?
I tried to uninstall both speechd-up and speech-dispatcher and
reinstalling the packages again to see if this would clear my problem
but I am still getting the hello when I do spd-say hello with still
the unwillingness to run Speakup.
I was hoping that if I got Speakup working I might be able to access a
text browser better than I would with Orca until I can get Firefox
working better.
I tried using w3m from a terminal using Orca but although I seemed to
be able to navigat text on a page I couldn't tab through the Links on
the page or even fill out forms and looking at the w3m hotkeys it
seems they are assigned for a language other than UK keyboard keys or
I haven't been able to find out how to get access with the keys that
have been assigned.
