Dear users and developers,
Thank's to works of developers and advanced users throught out The
world, The unity interface is much more accessible, than i have thinked
before i have tried todays Ubuntu 11.10 daily build. By pressing ALT+F1,
user can hear The names of buttons representing installed applications,
running applications with administration privileges is also supported
ammazingly and Orca can be used with those applications. Unfortunately,
i AM not able to locate The Update manager and run application dialog
window.
So please, will be Ubuntu updater included or this tool will not be
awailable and users will have to perform Ubuntu updates by using apt-get
dist upgrade?
There is Ubuntu One, Ubuntu software center, but i can not locate
Synaptics package manager.
But Unity is working and attention.
Orca is able to cooperate with included version of Mozilla Firefox, but
now, user must use The Orca configuration for Firefox and user must
check The button grab focus on objects when navigating. This button is
awailable in The Firefox specific Orca settings in The firefox TAB.
So for now, my biggest issue is, that i can not activate The run
application dialog box and i can not locate The terminal atleast inside
The list of installed applications.
The name of module is very probably Application launcher, which is
displaing The applications list after pressing ALT+F1.
My last question for all Orca users is.
Do You think, that it is sad, that Orca is not supporting The live
regions announcement mechanishm presented in The older Orca releases? in
Orca 2.32.0? So users could hear The messages of ARIA live regions not
only when Orca automatically have detected those messages, but user
could hear one of The checked ARIA live regions messages by pressing
ORCA+F2, F3. So Orca +F2 have announced The message presented by The
second ARIA live region, ORCA+F3 have announced The previously spoken
message from The thirt ARIa live region, ETC.
Now, ORCA is able to automatically speak The ARIA live region, but user
can not repeat The previously spoken messages, which have been assigned
to one of The ARIA live regions.
According to my opinion, it is sad, because ARIA live regions are very
often used even in The modern chat related WEB sites, some WEB pages are
using ARIA live regions for displaiing The ADS, state television WEB
pages can use those regions for displaiing tips for one of The important
news, ETC.
But Orca is very stable, Pulseaudio is not causing issues, at-spi is
working excellently. So i think, that everybody of us can lookingforward
to official, stable Ubuntu release. I think, that there is time to
release RC version of Ubuntu 11.10. I think, that this will be done in
The end of next week.
BUt it is only my personal analysis, it will depend on Canonical LTD.
