Re: [orca-list] GDM accessible login on Ubuntu gutsy. A success!

[Kenny Hitt <kenny hittsjunk net>]

Hi.

I did get some results configuring gdm for accesible login on Debian Sid.
The AddGtkModules and GtkModulesList lines aren't in Debian's gdm.conf file by default.  They were added when
I ran gdmsetup and chose to enable accessible login.  After I restarted gdm, I could start ORca with
control-s.  However, ORca couldn't read anything.  At this point, I'm not sure what is wrong, but I'll play with it some more
and post my final results.
