[orca-list] Orca on Ubuntu Mobile Internet Device(MID)

[Rakesh arky Ambati <rakesh_ambati yahoo com>]

Hi, 

I was looking at ways to use orca on devices other than personal computers. I took a shot at running orca on Ubuntu MID (8.10 Intrepid Ibex).. Right now I am able to use midori browser and surf the internet with orca.. 

Ubuntu Mobile (http://www.ubuntu.com/products/mobile) distrubution is targeted at new MID devices, though it doesn't include gnome-orca package. But don't let that stop you, you can get the packages and its dependencies from main repo and install it manually with dpkg. 

Right now there are few bugs that prevent me from working on the latest Ubuntu MID (Karmic).. Will keep you posted on how it goes. 

Cheers
