Public bug reported: First off, I get this error in Launchpad: "gnome-mouse-properties" does not exist in Ubuntu. Please choose a different package. If you're unsure, please select "I don't know"
Running Ubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04, Nautilus 2.22.2, etc., gnome-mouse- properties (which is advertised in GNOME's 2.22 release notes (http://library.gnome.org/misc/release-notes/2.22/#rna11y)) is inaccessible and unusable. Steps to reproduce =========== 1) Run 'gnome-mouse-properties' either through a terminal or by clicking "System > Preferences > Mouse" 2) You should be under the General tab -- click the 'Accessibility' tab 3) Under 'Simulated Secondary Click', try to enable 'Trigger secondary click by holding down the primary button' or under 'Dwell Click', try to enable 'Initiate click when stopping pointer movement' 4) Error dialog: '<b>Assistive Technologies not enabled</b>\n Mousetweaks requires Assistive Technologies.' What should happen =========== The preferences should be enabled automatically with no form of error What currently happens =========== An error dialog appears telling the using that 'Mousetweaks requires Assistive Technologies' but doesn't state where or how to enable it. This is an accessibility problem as its a generic error and it gives no assistance to the user to tell them how to enable 'Assistive Technologies'. I was lucky enough to know I could find 'Assistive Technologies' under 'System > Preferences > Assistive Technologies'. Others may not be so lucky. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-mouse-properties > accessibility is inaccessible https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/226992 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
