As many of us very probably know very well, there are more and more special WEB pages, which are used as A chat rooms. There are even freeware services, which are serving many users as a Internet chat providers. The following hyperlink will move You to The one chatroom, which i have setuped on The everywherechat WEB service. http://www.everywherechat.com/chatnow.php?defaultRoom=Visually_impaired_system_administrators The issue is, that Orca and many other screen readers are triing to read The texts on The dynamic WEB pages which are not using Aria live regions only on The user request. So if user will not press arrow keys, Orca and many others even very expensive commercial screen readers will never read new messages automatically. So my kind pleasment is, what about to try think about new algorithm, which would enable visually impaired users to automatically read new chat messages even on The WEB pages, which are not using ARIA live regions such as The WEB page, which i have provided You for The test. You will need The Adobe flash player installed, You will have to click on The onlyone build in Adobe flash object. After this object activation, You will be able to fill out The user name and password, You can type The user name and password what You want. If somebody know about freely awailable chat room, which is based on The ARIA live regions technology, would somebody provide me The link to this service? Orca is working with WEB pages with The ARIA live regions perfectly, regions can be monitored automatically and user can even manually get The text from several predefined live regions. ANy discussion about this topic is welcomed. Aspecially programmers arguments, why it is not possible to make this algorithms on WEB sites, which are not support ARIA live regions. BUt if somebody know about freely awailable chat room with ARIA live regions support, please let me know about it. Thank YOu very much for Yours discussion. With kindness regards.

I don't believe that Orca works well under CentOS6. I believe CentOS6 relies on Gnome 2.28 which is no longer supported in Orca. I'm also almost positive that the Anaconda install is not Orca friendly. If CentOS 6 and the other distros that rely on Gnome 2.28 were to upgrade to Gnome 2.30 or 2.32, we'd have some shot. The other distros that rely on CentOS's specific setup are RHEL and Scientific Linux. Also Oracle Linux. I believe that Gnome-Speech is still used, not Speech-Dispatcher.

I.e., sometimes,the ORCA speaks in a different language such as Spanish, though the person in the orca preferences is set to default, and the system has to be restarted and the person in the orca preferences has to be set in the default again for solving the problem. Any method to permenently solve this problem? Renuka.

Go to one or more pages with Firefox 5 and generally knock around in there, surfing from one page to another. 2. At some point, pressing up and down arrows go silent but arrowing left or right will still speak a character at a time. Also, other structural navigation keys go silent too. The only fix for me is to restart Orca. As soon as Orca restarts, all proper navigation works again. I've had this happen several times in a given gnome session. I'm using recent git pull of Orca Master and gnome 3 plus Firefox 5 from Arch Linux Repos. Can anyone else duplicate these problems?

If I had to guess, it happens on more complicated web pages, like GMail, Google Voice, ..., and when I'm jumping around quite a bit.

My Orca version is 2.32.0. I just saw that this version is not really up to date... not at all would be a better way to put it. This would be great to update this Orca version. But I read that I needed Gnome 3 in order to run the last Orca versions. Well, maybe I'm wrong. I'm a pretty new user on Linux and I still miss a lot of stuffs. My question is : do I need to have Gnome 3 for running the latest version of Orca ? Do I need to upgrade my actual Ubuntu version to 11.04 in order to have Gnome 3 installed ? And how could I, as simply as could be, do these things ? Thanks for your answers. Please excuse my English, still making a lot of mistakes!

Orca 3.1 and newer seem in test, with gnome3, and especially with at-spi2 which is not yet really stable. I know someone who, on Debian 6.0, could install orca 3.0.4 (it's not the default, but he managed to get this with some individual work), which works with gnome2 and at-spi1. I don't think going beyond is a good idea at this time. Anyway, all that isn't so easy due to the packaging issues, you should do that carefully and ask help in the distro in order to do such upgrades.

It starts out good and then later I get the originally reported behavior. The interesting part to me is that restarting orca fixes it every time.

Short of echoing every control key operation, one could probably add a limitted key echo for these specific keys and speak meaningful labels rather than the generic keystroke.

You could then paste everything into something like gedit and then just grab the text you're looking for. There may be an easier way to get just the text you're looking for, maybe from Orca's flat review, but if not, this will get you what you need.

If so, have you experienced the problem I'm about to describe and maybe even solved it? The problem is this. When I'm on my "friends page" in LJ, recent versions of Orca will not read the usernames of the friends' entries if I arrow down or use the continuous reading feature. I can read the username character by character, but that is all. In fact, if I'm reading continuously, Orca will just stop at the username for the next entry and I'll have to arrow sideways to get the username and then arrow down to read the entry. There does not seem to be a problem reading the texts of the entries themselves, including usernames in them. It is only at the top of the entry, when you're supposed to find out who's it is. This problem seems to have begun with the 2.9 Orca versions. Right now, I'm using version 3.1.3-xdesktop with Vinux. One weird aspect of this is that today I copied an entry into the clipboard (indeed, apparently a lot more than that) and Orca *did* read the username when I used Orca key + r to read what was in the clipboard. However, I doubt this is a useful way to read LJ, since commenting to entries would be quite a pain, I'd think. I wish I could just point to my "friends page" so that anybody who knows something could check this out, but this stuff is of course protected. Thanks in advance for any help with this.

Te perfect is, that this application can be used as a WEB browser, poverful HTML editor and WEB browser. The browser is fully compatible with The Gecko rendering engine. I have tested it with Orca and this application is working ammazingly. Useful hodkeys can be used to recall The Mail client, HTML editor or WEB browser. Eventhough SeaMonkey is using older release of Gecko engine, than The version included in Firefox version 5.0, i have found out, that this older Gecko engine can be used for displaing many kind of Web pages. Seamonkey latest awailable version is very fast and there is also Windows version of this program. Orca structural navigation keys are working perfectly while using WEB browser included in SeaMonkey. So if somebody of us is searching for reliable Internet communication solution, I AM strongly recommend You The SeaMonkey program. It is very stable and fast and every sub task will run in The one process memory area. So You do not have to run several binary modules for working with Yours E-mail folders, for editing HTML content ETC. HTML editor is very accessible and visually impaired users can make their own WEB pages. -- Mgr.

I have found out, that Ubuntu latest development version is for now unusable even for Orca testing, programmers are making somethink complex with Pulseaudio sound server and Orca and speech-dispatcher speech server cooperation have been broken at all at The moment. I have even found out Archlinux live CD, but it is containg XFCE desktop environment without Orca included. So which distribution do You personaly use for testing latest Orca builds? May be that it is Ubuntu development release, but YOu are not using speech at all or You are triing to use Gnomespeech services. Thank You very much for Yours answer.

I have tested Openindiana live DVD and i have found out, that The Orca responsiveness is very fast even while using included Firefox WEB browser. Developers of Openindiana distro have included special acceleration for Firefox and PUlseaudio sound server is not used. When i have tested Openindiana distribution, it was several months ago, Packaging system did not worked, distribution could not be upgraded after finishing The installation. All administration applications excepts updater worked excellently. No at-spiregistrid crashes have been occurred. The onlyone disadvantage of this distro is, that YOu can not use it with less than 1 GB of RAM.

I'm running Seamonkey 2.0.11 and Orca 3.1.3-xdesktop on Ubuntu 10.10 (Vinux 3.1). In Seamonkey, I used control+shift+s to bring up Google, typed in a search term and clicked on the search button. The resulting page took forever to be parsed by Orca, as it does in Firefox. Furthermore, the down arrow key and the structural navigation key for headers didn't work. Both were just stuck on the same line. The tab key did take me to subsequent links. This may be unique to my setup, but for me, Seamonkey is not a viable replacement for Firefox.

I don't use Vinux so maybe here's the difference. Anyway, I tried to build and install a few orca versions. For the time being, I didn't get any errors compiling (make; make install). But I don't have any obvious result, either. My orca link in /usr/local/bin still redirect to orca v 2.32.0. My running version is still 2.32.0, which is not surprising. Perhaps an error occured, that I didn't see, and the link had not been replaced because the new Orca version I tried to install wasn't steady. I really don't know. I plan to upgrade my Ubuntu to 11.04 Natty and use Gnome 3. I will have less problems by then, I guess. But I would like to update Orca without upgrading all my system :D , if possible, that is.

Try you following after you launched Seamonkey: 1. Press Orca Modifier+CTRL+SPACE key combination. 2. In Seamonkey page check the Grab focus on objects when navigating check box, the default state this check box is unchecked. I looked some headings containing pages, checking grab focus on object when navigating check box is resolve my machine the heading levels related issues. If this check box is unchecked, H and Shift+H heading level structural navigation command doesn't work right. Anybody confirming this? If I see right, the search possibility (CTRL+F keystroke) doesn't working right. If I begin writing search term and press ESCAPE key, the focus doesn't jump the founded result. I don't see visual for example the searched link focused or not, Orca where am I spokening the prewious focused link. Happening similar if I writing only the want searching content, but not press Escape key. For example, when I begin typing the search term, and if have founded result, Orca doesn't spokening the search result. This possibility working right with Firefox. I don't no this is Seamonkey or Orca script mapping related issue. I don't no why, but impossible activating Seamonkey main menu bar, F10 or ALT key doesn't activating the menu bar If I using for example the ALT+F (File menu) or ALT+E (Edit menu) mkey combination, required main menues are dropdowned right. Possible newest Seamonkey version this problem are already fixed, I not looked yet.

Very interesting, for example in Oneiric are packaged only with 2.0.13 version.

Also, it's my understanding that Ubuntu 11.04 doesn't come with Gnome 3. It comes with Gnome 2 and unity. I guess you may be able to install Gnome 3 though.

I doed my openion some importanter braille related patches with need revieving, if want this functions be ready before UI freeze time period. 1. Contracted braille related patch with provide possibility to turn Orca present cursor highlighted word with computer braille format or contracted braille: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651206 This patch percentage is good, if I begin going right direction this function implementation. Need resolving one traceback related problem if any developer tell me what can I mistake this patch. Only my patch producing a traceback error message if existing Orca user-settings.conf file not already have the required setting, Orca GUI preferences dialog is not presenting the screen. 2. Present braille with mnemonics informations related patch: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651839 This patch percentage is good, if my implementation direction is good. Basic dialogue widgets and menues the mnemonics related informations are right presenting the braille display, similar with speak objects mnemonics preference. Possible both two patches need actualizing with master and orca-xdesktop branches, because perhaps UI files is different. Of course I welcome doing this tasks. Unfortunately, I think before UI freeze not have enough time to implementing presenting braille with position index values, enhancement request link is following: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=617647 Don't surprise, I begin doing this feature with some months ago, but I not attaching any patch, because my code is not actualized with now awailable Orca branches (master and orca-xdesktop). I think need scheduling this feature implementation with next development schedule, because the UI freeze time period is very near, if I known right date. :-):-) I absolute agree if have higher priority required tasks, for example actualizing Orca docs with master and orca-xdesktop branches. For example, in master branch need removing Orca help page the removed preferences documents (disable GKSU with keyboard setting documentation, magnifier related documentations, etc). If need, I try welcome helping this task, if I not need working this two linked functions this development cicle.

Both two branches are containing latest developments and functions, of course except the GNOME3 related differences. When final Orca 3.2 release is done, will be have a final orca-3.2-xdesktop stable version this temporary time period too? What time period are supporting with orca-xdesktop branch? This is an important question, because for example with Ubuntu Lucid the support are end I think 2013 april. I don't no, future releasing Debian 7.0 (wheezy) will be what GNOME version are shipping.

When a Firefox page is brought up and then closed Orca stops speaking. In vinux with the special scripts you can get Orca going again with Control+Alt+O. But this will only work between 6 to eight times and then Orca almost freezes like and a reboot is in order. How should I file this as a new bug or is there a bug already open? -- Scott Berry E-mail Address: scottbb1973@gmail.com Repeater Book Admin for the following states: north and South Dakota, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa Computer Certs: MCP, A+ Certified From jason@jasonjgw.net Sat Aug 6 01:11:59 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7E2F67500ED for ; Sat, 6 Aug 2011 01:11:59 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -0.551 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-0.551 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, RCVD_IN_BRBL_LASTEXT=1.449] autolearn=no Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 1AAbHixijpaI for ; Sat, 6 Aug 2011 01:11:57 +0000 (UTC) Received: from jdc.jasonjgw.net (ppp198-218.static.internode.on.net [59.167.198.218]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8BA947500DB for ; Sat, 6 Aug 2011 01:11:49 +0000 (UTC) Received: by jdc.jasonjgw.net (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 3C53B180B33C5; Sat, 6 Aug 2011 11:11:46 +1000 (EST) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=simple/simple; d=jasonjgw.net; s=mail; t=1312593106; bh=ERx/LjS8nzmN6R9tp7sqcbwk2GqCReotdFEdKUxh4wc=; h=Date:From:To:Subject:Message-ID:References:MIME-Version: Content-Type:In-Reply-To; b=XcWHh4ucQrUIQ0VJLuQocit11XrE1jmioC/t0Wy2KZH+DKwzieD5ES5vRVKAFNleL fdzbeixab2GM+df54Nr+NF+t9+4XHY/rGaWkgeBvuj5219mXhJq9vIrbcMZP6e9j6l 0taQOhGww84s8M2Z8x5uyTqwrRk07ncUiqncpMGw= Date: Sat, 6 Aug 2011 11:11:46 +1000 From: Jason White To: orca-list@gnome.org Message-ID: <20110806011146.GA19444@jdc.jasonjgw.net> Mail-Followup-To: orca-list@gnome.org References: <4E3AEE00.1010508@gmail.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <4E3AEE00.1010508@gmail.com> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15) Subject: Re: [orca-list] wich is the best combination for browsing the web?

Whichever you choose, be sure that the version of Orca matches the version of Firefox. Running Orca 3.x with Firefox 4 or Firefox 5 is better than running Orca 2.x with those Firefox versions, as improvements were made in Orca to accommodate bug fixes in Firefox. > Has any thing been done so far on the backspace not speaking removed > character? Not as far as I know, but note that when characters are deleted with backspace, the braille output is updated properly, which suggests to me that it's an Orca issue with speech rather than a Firefox accessibility bug. I would personally choose Firefox 5 with Orca 3.x, but others may have a different opinion.

I've been able to start and stop Firefox freely any number of times without Orca quitting. I've had to restart Orca numerous times but that relates to different problems. I'm using gnome 3 on a current Arch Linux system using Orca from git master.

But kvm needs virtualisation support with in your cpu. For vmplayer try the folowing: 1. cp /etc/pulse/default.pa ~/.pulse 2. edit ~/.pulse/default.pa and load the alsa module manualy by removing the '#' from the line: #load-module module-alsa-sink 3. aditionaly add load-module module-alsa-sink device=dmix After reboot, pulse shouldn't block the audio hardware by using alsa's mix plugin. Now you can start vmplayer using aoss which redirects oss sound to alsa. HTH.

So user can not repeat himself The informaztion contained in The some of The live regions. Live regions are being announcing automatically correctly, but function Orca modifier+function keys is not working at all. While using Firefox included with Ubuntu Naty Narval. Orca 2.32.1 is supporting this feature. MR Jason White tried to show me The chatroom which is supporting ARIA live regions, but this chatroom is showing me only pass1, pass2 words aftertriing to access The demo of this chat room. So if anybody of us knows about free even chat room accessible after registration, which can support Aria live regions, please let me know.-- Mgr. Janusz Chmiel ARIA live regions are for example fully supported on The following Czech TV WEB site. www.ct24.cz Orca is able to automatically announce The live regions. ANd i think, that this WEB site is using ARIA live regions. I would like to know, how many live regions can one WEB page use, if there is some limit, for example, 10 live regions is The limit. May be, that become The time to think about developing chatroom, which would support ARIA live regions. So The message of every user can have assigned one live regions. But if there is limit 10 live regions for example, my dream can not become true.

I don't know the Orca's age, but it's obvious the hard work of developers. From that time to Orca 2.91.92, the version I use, the improvements are really wonderful. Ubuntu has replaced Windows in my daily activities. However, as far as I use it, more and more needs come up. Yes, the first step is the usage, but the second is sofisticate this usage. In this message, I ask about some tasks that I could not do so easily as in Windows: 1. Listening radios Radios are everywhere in Internet, but it's not easy to find them, to connect them and navigate in their websites. In Windows, I had Tapinradio. I could find radios for coutries, styles and other tags. Only a few commands were needed to listen, record, schedule tasks on radios of a large database. Having arrived at Linux world, I tried Stream Tuner. I was able to listen only pre-selected radios. I couldn't find radios by contry and I really could'nt do listen anything I wanted. Was someone more successful than me? Does someone know another friendly desktop application for this purpose? 2. Downloading Youtube videos By means of Youtube, I have been learning more of playing guitar. In Windows, I downloaded videos by a desktop tool and convert them to mp3. Having saved them in a movable device, I could listen some llessons more confortably. using Linux and Orca, how to download and convert Youtube videos to mp3? 3. Updating blogs Of course, I can do it by browser interface, but if there is a desktop application to do it for Google or Hotmail blogs, it would be certainly more confortable. The navigation in internet with Orca is not so confortable yet. Wehn a link is found, a delay occurs; we can't press ctrl+arrows to navigate among blocks of links and, in my computer, even though not so often as previously, but Orca is still crashing in web tasks. Desktop applications are more confortable than web applications in the sense that custom keystrokes are available and desktop is more confortable almost by definition. Therefore, I ask: are there desktop tools to update blogs?

I unfortunately do not know about GTK based accessible Internet radio player/recorder application similar to TApin Radio for Windows. But i can offer You The WEB site with many Internet radios, sure, not so many like in Tapin Radio. http://www.listenlive.eu/ You will need The Gnome-mplayer installed. In some cases also Totem Movie player. I have found out, that Best support for plaiing multimedia streamed by using Internet is build in Debian live Gnome, latest stable release. The time between connection To The server and time, when playback starts is very short.

My prior Unix/Linux experience is so long ago, I might as well be a Linux newbie, but I'm having fun getting back into it and discovering all the cool new stuff while I"m getting up to speed with Orca. I'm spending a lot of time learning how to problem-solve myself while reading about what the rest of you are doing. Meanwhile, I want to take time out to read my audiobooks, but I like to listen to them at a higher speed... I'm using Banshee for playing music files, but I haven't found a plug in to allow me to increase play speed. There seem to be a couple of programs for Linux to do that, but I can't tell yet which ones would work with Orca. Is anyone else using a media player that will enable them to increase the playback speed for audiobooks with Orca? Any information will be appreciated.

There is a package called youtube-dl which will do just that; it is a command line tool that you can run from the shell and you pass the youtube video's address and it will download the program and create an MP3 of the file. For blogging, I have used an emacs mode to help with reading and writing to most any blog. I haven't used it for some while now so forget some of the more important details. If you are really interested, let me know privately as this isn't an Orca thing but I could look into it further and give you details if you want.

To install Audacity, if you haven't already done so, is do "sudo apt-get install audacity" from the terminal and apt-get will fetch Audacity and install it. Also you might want to install lame as well if you are working with mp3s. HTH On 8/7/11, Tami Kinney wrote: > Hi, all, > > I'm an Orca newbie running Ubuntu 11.04.

Orca did not read out any of the menus to me, but there was an option to increase the playback speed of an audio file while maintaining the audio quality. Unfortuantely I did nto see any shortcut keys to do this, which would make things much easier.

I forgot to add that the option with which to increase the playback speed of a file in VLC is found under Playback, Faster (fine). You can actually create shortcut keys to speed up and slow down playback if you go to the Tools menu, open the Preferences window, and then you will find a button to the left labeled "Hotkeys". Through this page you can set shortcut keys for many different things. Although this can be quite customizable and efficient, it does not at all negate the fact that the menus were not read out loud.

On the topic of blogs, as you have not had a response = regarding that, may be the following will be useful. I know of two pieces of software which I think work with orca.

I did a small bit more testing with VLC. Orca will not read the menus for me in VLC, but if I open a file using CTRL+O, the Open File window will appear; Orca does read the contents of this window for me. There are hotkeys which have been preset for speeding up and slowing down playback speed. Please note that when I say "standard keyboard" in the following statements, I mean a standard U.S. English QWERTY keyboard layout. I am not at all familiar with other keyboard styles, so I apologize for that; if you live in the United States, you very likely have a standard QWERTY keyboard. 1. To speed up the playback of a file, just press the closing bracket key ("]"), which is the second key to the right of the "P" key on a standard keyboard. 2. To slow down playback of a file, just press the opening bracket key ("["), which is the first key to the right of the "P" key on a standard keyboard. 3. To return to the normal playback rate (the original playback rate) of a file, just press the equal-sign key ("="), which is the second key to the right of the "0" key at the top (the "number row") of a standard keyboard. I hope that this helps, and that you can get to enjoy listening to your audiobooks soon! If I can be of any further help, please let me know. Take care.

Some time ago I wrote small program which can change speed/pitch and shorten pauses in audiobooks. It's converter, not player, but you can use internal audio to correct parameters. It's simple command line program, so should be fully accessible. See http://audina.polip.com/ ethanak -- http://milena.polip.com/ - Pa pa, Ivonko!

I'd just like to recommend a simpler and more polite method. Check the mailing list archive at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/orca-list/ and compare it to your inbox. You will see immediately whether you are missing any recent posts or not. If you really want to receive a message to your inbox, you can re-subscribe at http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/orca-list. The list will notify you that you are already subscribed which should serve your purpose as any other message from the list, but this message will go only to you and you will avoid spamming other list members.

Another trick would be to write something meaningful to the list that could provoke further discussion like asking a question that warrents an answer. then it is seemless and not some boaring test message. But the resubscribe message is a good idea though; that way, no trafic goes to the rest of the list members.

I think vlc is written in qt, that's, at this time, the same as "completely inaccessible". There is a bridge from qt to gnome accessibility technologies being developed, I think it will be included in the new ubuntu in october, but it for the mean time, vlc is not accessible.

I made tests with Tk / TCL lately and Orca can't read the window... well, with my current version, thhat is. When I checked on the Orca web page, I saw that it offered an accessibility for Gnome-like applications (I don't remember the name of the library, by now). I just wonder if, in the future, other librairies will be (or could be) supported. Thanks for your answers, Enjoy your Monday, as a Monday could be enjoyable.

What is the keystroke commands that vinux issues to the machine to force orca and speech dispatcher to restart? I know it kills speech dispatcher and restarts orca, what i need are the commands used. now that i'm more familiar with gnome/orca i need to duplicate the same set of keystrokes. I seem to have to force orca to restart quite often so i'm thinking i'll just bind it all to a keystroke the way vinux has it.

The server is also written in C language like Speech-dispatcher, Speech-dispatcher developers would analyse The voiceman source code to find out, if many code have been copied from speech-dispatcher source code or no. Voiceman can use Alsa, Pulse audio and even there is some attempt to integrate direct Orca support. The main issue for me is, how to find The location of Orca customization script. It is really not easy task. Voiceman can be downloaded from The sourceforge.net and there are also instructions to compile this speech server. Voiceman is used in ALT Linux Homeros as A speech server. I have tried The live CD in The console mode and it seems to me, that this speech server would be stable. Here are simple steps in The strange form, but developers off Bash scripts will understand it very well. # wget ftp://ftp.altlinux.org/pub/people/msp/voiceman/1.5.0/voiceman-1.5.0.tar.gz ????? ????? ?????????? ? ??????? ??????, ??????????? ??? ??????????

Thank you. I managed to spend my Sunday free time playing with Audacity and trying out different audio extractors that I got one disc of the book onto my driver where I wanted it and then didnt have time to listen to the book. /lol/ But I'm taking notes o I can start contributing ways and means when others ask. VLC does look very interesting, so I will try out your suggestions when I have the time to play again. /smile/ I do have future work-related reasons for learning more about working with audio files, so it's all good.

Look at your top panel. You'll have two menubars. One is the standard menubar, another one is the indicator, there is the menu for connections.

If it's about networks, hit enter and you should be picking from a menu of networks. AIf that's not the right icon, just keeping tabbing til you get to the right icon. alex On 8/8/2011 1:02 PM, Tom Masterson wrote: > I have Ubuntu 11.04 using classic (gnome).

You can then use the arrow keys to move to the notification area to find the right icon. Mine doesn't announce which notification, icon is the one for networking, it just says "image," so I have to arrow down to read the first menu item for a given image to make sure I'm in the right menu for, say, sound or networking. Once you find the icon for networking, then you can arrow through the menu items, which will include wireless networks available to you, and you can find the network you want to connect to. I found this process a bit confusing at first, and still have to fumble around in it before I get the right connection. Once it's done, you're good to go, though and can set the network you want as your default connection. At the bottom of the menu you reach through the notification area, there are options to edit networks and a few other things. Sorry I can't be more specific. I'm a relative newbie, too, so still haven't quite figured out a quicker way without vague fumbling. /smile/ I do need to muck around with my router later on today or tomorrow, so if I learn anything new and useful, I will let you know.

I'm running vinux 3.2.1, which is based on Ubuntu 11.04 and uses the Gnome Classic desktop, and if I want to access a wireless network,I do the following: First, I press control+alt+tab until I hear something like "bottom expanded edge panel". I then use the tab or shift+tab keys until I get to "NM Applet Icon". At this point, I press the space bar to open the menu and then down arrow until I hear the network I'm interested in. Once I hear the network I want to connect to, I just hit the enter key. On 08/08/11 12:51, Mgr.

Press left arrow until you hear something related to networkng. ou should then be in the network manager menu. Arrow down that menu to find the network you want to connect to. I hope to have sed menus much more clearly indicated by Ubuntu 12.04, the next LTS.

When I press Windows+m at the desktop, I just hear "text m". I'm running vinux 3.2.1 (Ubuntu 11.04) with the Gnome Classic desktop, which is what I think the original poster is running.

I found that when I try to select cells using shift right arrow for setting a range for merging, orca does not announce the selected cells. I use libre office 3.3 So could some one tell me if this is a known bug or is there a work around or a patch? I am pretty well used to using calc, but if i were to teach this to an average blind person or let's say make tutorials, this is not a good thing. Happy hacking. Krishnakant.

I've tried these keys on my desktop, inside an application, like thunderbird, and from the bottom edge panel.

I have two different computers running Ubuntu 11.04. On one the windows-m or windows-s work on the other it does not. The one that it works on was an upgrade from previous versions of Ubuntu and the one it does not work on is a new install. Any ideas what may be the difference that would cause it not to work on a new install?

I feel this is very good and its rather critical too, but if some attention goes to things like calc, it will result in better experience and this is critical too. It might lead to a lot of jobs and contracts such as data entry becoming available to blind people in countries like India. This is just my 2 sents. Happy hacking. Krishnakant.

It does not trap the orca key be it capslock or insert (in fact I think this is true on my upgraded version as well). In fact if I have assigned something like previous notification message to orca+n (which it shows on my laptop as orca+capslock+n) and I then press capslock+n it just types the N or n depending on current state of caps. This is with the version of orca that comes with Ubuntu 11.04. Any idea why this is happening?

Is the Orca modifier set to caps+lock? Are you checking the modifier tick box in the far right hand column of the key bindings table? If you're doing this then you should see Orca+caps-lock+n in the key bindings table when you press Orca+n in the key bindings column. Note that somewhere along the way, the caps-lock key is captured by Orca as well as being passed through to the application. therefore, Orca+n may read your previous message, but it'll also toggle caps-lock.

I did this recently because I had to map the function move to next word in flat review to Orca+l in the laptop keyboard layout. Here's what I did: First, I switched to laptop keyboard layout and saved my Orca settings. Next I went back into Orca preferences and went over to the key bindings page. On this page, the Orca modifier now said caps-lock. I then found the function move to next word in flat review in the key bindings table. I arrowed over to the right hand column and made sure the modifier tick box was ticked. I then arrowed back to the key binding column and pressed enter. I hit the key Orca+l and pressed enter again to save it. It now said Orca+caps-lock+l in the key bindings column. I save everything, and it worked. Ah, knowing that the insert key also gets passed through makes some sense. I was trying the desktop keyboard layout, and I was getting some strange results when using the pass through function. I now see that that strange behavior could have been explained by the insert key being passed through to the application. It also makes sense that the same reason Orca can't keep the caps-lock key from being passed through to the application would also apply to the insert key.

No its not a unity keystroke. The reason why it doesn't work for you is because Vinux doesn't use the indicators on the panel. You need to add the indicator applets to your panel for this keystroke to work.

I found https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopExperienceTeam/ApplicationIndicators which gives a good description of these indicators. I also saw several pages with links to useful indicators. Do I just need to install the indicator for the application I'm interested in (Tomboy, Ubuntu One, Glipper, ...) and they'll show up and I'll be able to access them with Windows+s and/or Windows+m? Any idea why Vinux doesn't include any of these?

I'd need to check to be sure, but I think Vinux does come with indicators for network, sound, tomboy etc, but since the panel layout has been changed, you do not have the applets that host the indicators on your panel anywhere. You need to go to the panel, and add "Indicator Applet", and "Indicator Applet Session" to your panel as new applets. The names I gave for them may not be exactly correct, but if you search for indicator applet in the add panel window, they should come up in the resluts, and you need only press enter to add them to your panel. hth Luke From rkcole72984@gmail.com Mon Aug 8 19:02:00 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C55FC75022D for ; Mon, 8 Aug 2011 19:02:00 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.589 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.589 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, FREEMAIL_ENVFROM_END_DIGIT=0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, HTML_MESSAGE=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001, T_TO_NO_BRKTS_FREEMAIL=0.01] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id Dm92rCQO1ntT for ; Mon, 8 Aug 2011 19:01:54 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-yx0-f182.google.com (mail-yx0-f182.google.com [209.85.213.182]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 62C54750201 for ; Mon, 8 Aug 2011 19:01:46 +0000 (UTC) Received: by yxl31 with SMTP id 31so4375902yxl.27 for ; Mon, 08 Aug 2011 12:01:44 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:subject:references :in-reply-to:content-type; bh=lqmHWU2Ta8OiShkoP8sucIVZkdyWaGbQYMVdnUSnjes=; b=dw5OSVvVc3KS00ISBH9bKJScRZm/h+4b29WyLRTXkhwv2lYib3NyhDYaNlxu0E9lDK +FDrWVqmG7kgvwc0rb2k2Z82355aTXelU6VipAF8zAOM+gEt6AGD5DltOJd5n5VnTq8Q 1u9MFDdXD5CT9v22ROGT1g6Ej2Z0sqETPBC/Q= Received: by 10.42.177.6 with SMTP id bg6mr6076557icb.471.1312830104430; Mon, 08 Aug 2011 12:01:44 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [192.168.1.142] (c-76-20-104-251.hsd1.ca.comcast.net [76.20.104.251]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id g21sm1333030ibl.58.2011.08.08.12.01.42 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Mon, 08 Aug 2011 12:01:43 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <4E403295.1080400@gmail.com> Date: Mon, 08 Aug 2011 12:01:41 -0700 From: Robert Cole User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.18) Gecko/20110617 Thunderbird/3.1.11 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: orca-list@gnome.org References: <4E3E95FC.80804@gmail.com> <4E3E99A0.2000701@deep.cz> <1312732185.2268.8.camel@Tami-Pangolin-Performance> <1312744735.2601.0.camel@Tami-Pangolin-Performance> <4E3EEBA6.8090707@gmail.com> <4E3EEC0F.8040305@gmail.com> <4E3F0CBD.9000602@gmail.com> <1312759979.3844.38.camel@Tami-Pangolin-Performance> <4E3F4B6E.5060909@gmail.com> <1312823052.2286.68.camel@Tami-Pangolin-Performance> In-Reply-To: <1312823052.2286.68.camel@Tami-Pangolin-Performance> Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="------------080508040004020905000909" X-Mailman-Approved-At: Wed, 10 Aug 2011 16:31:36 +0000 Subject: Re: [orca-list] Audiobooks X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 08 Aug 2011 19:02:01 -0000 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------080508040004020905000909 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Please let me know how it all turns out for you.

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Please let me know how it all turns out for you. I have been looking for employment for years, but many employers do not like the fact that I am blind. So I try to spend my time helping people with different issues related to computers and operating systems.

Pelase let me know if VLC helps you. The audio playback speed si a great feature, and it works for videos, too.

Yes, that does help! Thank you. I managed to spend my Sunday free time
playing with Audacity and trying out different audio extractors that I
got one disc of the book onto my driver where I wanted it and then didnt
have time to listen to the book. /lol/ But I'm taking notes o I can
start contributing ways and means when others ask. VLC does look very
interesting, so I will try out your suggestions when I have the time to
play again. /smile/ I do have future work-related reasons for learning
more about working with audio files, so it's all good.

I added the indicator applet (note that I used control+F10 in the bottom edge panel to bring up the menu where I could add applets) and now I'm playing with the different indicators.

As long as you use Windows key M to jump to the applet, you should be able to escape out easily enough with the escape key. If you navigate to the indicator applet on the panel manually, there are focus issues when you try to move focus away from the indicator applet.

Compiz is also not set up to allow you to switch between panels. The best solution is to run metacity, and the easiest way to change that is to change your login session to Ubuntu no effects at login time. As I said in an earlier mail, also make sure you have the indicator applets on your panel as well.

Changing login to Ubuntu Classic (No effects) did not change it. If I try "metacity --replace" it appears to lock up Gnome. The only reason I have for thinking it is running compiz is that if I run gnome-wm to try to reset the default desktop manager I get a compiz error. So that leads to two questions: 1. How do I tell for sure which manager it is using? 2. How do I change manager if changing the login settings does not work?

You could try removing the package, I suppose, but that might not lead to the desired result depending on how your distribution handles window managers and how the package dependencies are set up. You could also search the Web; there should be instructions for your distribution on how to change window managers.

I can't find any Import function any place. What I'm doing is trying to import a tab delimitted text file into a simple table. This is a pretty much no brainer with MS Excel and I thought OOo Calc or Libreoffice calc would have a similar capability but I don't see it. Any ideas?

We have Alt+F2 and type orca, Mickeysoft has Windows+U...dunno what Apple has. Because it sure as hell be nice to press a certain keystroke and get the accessible installation, plus it sure would save a hell of a lot of posts on, "How do I install Ubuntu, or GRML, or Arch, or Debian, etc., etc., etc. Universal Access isn't very universal at all with no standards from one distribution to another, let alone from one operating system to another. When are we going to make universal Access universal? When will we be able to press a key, no matter which LSB compliant distro and get an accessible installation, or have a screen reader/magnifier start up? When are we going to stop monkeying around with the trivial crap and actually do something intelligent for ourselves? When are we handicapped going to become part of the Linux Standards Base?

I switched from Windows to Linux a few months ago, thanks to the vinux distribution. I tried doing this several times over the last decade, but I wasn't successful until just now. I think this says a lot about how far the state of Linux accessibility has come. Universal access across distributions and operating systems is a laudable goal, but how realistic is it really? Is this a situation where we'd just be tilting at windmills? I mean if everyone could agree then we wouldn't have so many distributions and operating systems in the first place. Finally, I don't consider these questions to be trivial. I have a job right now that requires I have access to Linux, I can access wireless networks, I can use IRC, I can read email and so on. I need answers to these questions now if I'm going to keep my job. I can't wait for these questions to be answered or these issues to be addressed until after we have universal access across distributions and operating systems. I just can't wait that long.

Before, I was die-hard CLI. Now I can actually use the GNOME environment without cringing at how laggy Orca is in Firefox and huge lists of files. Obviously there's room for improvement (e.g, Orca performance in Firefox can still use a big boost and accuracy check, as well as general responsiveness is not as good as the Windows counterparts with NVDA). That being said, things are a bit better and will hopefully improve steadily. > Universal access across distributions and operating systems is a > laudable goal, but how realistic is it really?

On one hand, you have 200+ distributions to pick from, and probably only 10-15 of those are actually accessible without having major issues. And that's probably a bit too positive. I don't just mean they stuck Orca in and left it at that, I mean actually having a snappy, well-put together OS that isn't going to need a boatload of configuring for the nooby. For noobs and Linux, Ubuntu and/or Vinux is really their only GUI option where they can use various Windows apps natively under Linux and gradually move into the Linux world. People will probably say we should all use Arch, but not everybody can just pick up a Linux book and start configuring their Arch system to their heart's content. As far as consoles go, Speakup is the solution, or Emacspeak, it's the GUI in all its flavors that really puts us blind and other disabled people on the brink of falling behind the pack. > Finally, I don't consider these questions to be trivial.

I just > can't wait that long. > Yes indeed. Universal access? What does this actually even mean? To me, it means not just the visually impaired user of technology, but the deaf and physically handicapped. Speech recognition under Linux is lacking or so I've heard, and there's probably other areas where Linux doesn't even scratch the surface of what needs to be done for other disabled individuals to effectively use their machines. Having universsal access will probably never happen. Nobody really likes getting involved in the nitty-gritty, and all the really awesome coders are finding big buck jobs and using Windows, or at the most, Linux as a server for websites etc. People need to start coming to major conclusions if we want something to get done on a more global/distrowide level. I'm on some other a11y Linux lists for various distros, and all they seem to do is bitch and moan about needing to make plans, and then argue amongst themselves about how to target accessibility in their distro, which leads to lots of quoted messages and arguments about the argument that started the initial argument about arguing about accessibility and usability, which in turn brings in another longwinded string of stuff hardly related to accessibility in the first place. In short, instead of coding, they're all just trying to figure out how to implement a11y and the result is almost no progress, at least in my eyes. Why don't people just start coding and experimenting rather than checking with the big elitists if it's OK? The community will decide in the end if their efforts are good or not. Now, to back up my whinefest, I'm actually learning Python. It's been slow going, as I have a real life, but I'm going to eventually try helping instead of blowing hot air. Oh, and yeah, a unified hotkey on any Linux distro to bring up accessibility options would be welcome. Now we'd just need to get the actual access there. Fluxbox, IseWM, and other obscure windowmanagers, anyone? Oh, what about Puppy Linux? Still not accessible. Why? It's too hard. Boo hoo!

Also, http://www.sthurlow.com/python/ is a beginner's point of view on Python. It starts out stupidly simple but at least it's harder to get lost that way. I hit the wall when it comes to actually....using it. Sure it's good to be able to write abstract tidbits of code to make math easier on yourself, but what about doing something useful? This is where the resources are lacking.

I took a class in which Python was the main language taught, but the problem is that all I learned to do was to create a program which takes in a birthday and gives a person a personality characteristic about himself/herself according to some formulas. Unfortunately, I have taken classes in C++ as well, but it was basically the same--creating programs which use minimal skills, and basically do something very, very simple like printing diamond shapes made of asterisks on the screen. I read these posts on the Orca list as well as the Ubuntu Accessibility list, and I just feel awful because I hardly know a thing. I have a little bit of vision which allows me to use the eZoom plugin in Compiz, but I don't think that it is going to last, and I definitely do not plan on switching back to Windows.

I hit the wall when it comes to actually....using it. Sure it's good to be able to write abstract tidbits of code to make math easier on yourself, but what about doing something useful? This is where the resources are lacking.

about how far the state of Linux accessibility has come.

Agree. I'm not using Linux as my main OS, but it has certainly become less annoying to use as of late. Before, I was die-hard CLI. Now I can actually use the GNOME environment without cringing at how laggy Orca is in Firefox and huge lists of files. Obviously there's room for improvement (e.g, Orca performance in Firefox can still use a big boost and accuracy check, as well as general responsiveness is not as good as the Windows counterparts with NVDA). That being said, things are a bit better and will hopefully improve steadily.

Universal access across distributions and operating systems is a
laudable goal, but how realistic is it really? Is this a situation where
we'd just be tilting at windmills? I mean if everyone could agree then
we wouldn't have so many distributions and operating systems in the
first place.

This is Linux's biggest fault. On one hand, you have 200+ distributions to pick from, and probably only 10-15 of those are actually accessible without having major issues. And that's probably a bit too positive. I don't just mean they stuck Orca in and left it at that, I mean actually having a snappy, well-put together OS that isn't going to need a boatload of configuring for the nooby. For noobs and Linux, Ubuntu and/or Vinux is really their only GUI option where they can use various Windows apps natively under Linux and gradually move into the Linux world. People will probably say we should all use Arch, but not everybody can just pick up a Linux book and start configuring their Arch system to their heart's content. As far as consoles go, Speakup is the solution, or Emacspeak, it's the GUI in all its flavors that really puts us blind and other disabled people on the brink of falling behind the pack.

Finally, I don't consider these questions to be trivial. I have a job
right now that requires I have access to Linux, I can access wireless
networks, I can use IRC, I can read email and so on. I need answers to
these questions now if I'm going to keep my job. I can't wait for these
questions to be answered or these issues to be addressed until after we
have universal access across distributions and operating systems. I just
can't wait that long.

Yes indeed. Universal access? What does this actually even mean? To me, it means not just the visually impaired user of technology, but the deaf and physically handicapped. Speech recognition under Linux is lacking or so I've heard, and there's probably other areas where Linux doesn't even scratch the surface of what needs to be done for other disabled individuals to effectively use their machines. Having universsal access will probably never happen. Nobody really likes getting involved in the nitty-gritty, and all the really awesome coders are finding big buck jobs and using Windows, or at the most, Linux as a server for websites etc.

People need to start coming to major conclusions if we want something to get done on a more global/distrowide level.  I'm on some other a11y Linux lists for various distros, and all they seem to do is bitch and moan about needing to make plans, and then argue amongst themselves about how to target accessibility in their distro, which leads to lots of quoted messages and arguments about the argument that started the initial argument about arguing about accessibility and usability, which in turn brings in another longwinded string of stuff hardly related to accessibility in the first place. In short, instead of coding, they're all just trying to figure out how to implement a11y and the result is almost no progress, at least in my eyes. Why don't people just start coding and experimenting rather than checking with the big elitists if it's OK? The community will decide in the end if their efforts are good or not.

Now, to back up my whinefest, I'm actually learning Python. It's been slow going, as I have a real life, but I'm going to eventually try helping instead of blowing hot air.

Oh, and yeah, a unified hotkey on any Linux distro to bring up accessibility options would be welcome. Now we'd just need to get the actual access there. Fluxbox, IseWM, and other obscure windowmanagers, anyone? Oh, what about Puppy Linux? Still not accessible. Why? It's too hard. Boo hoo!

sure as hell be nice to press a certain keystroke and get the accessible

Universal Access isn't very universal at all with no standards from one
distribution to another, let alone from one operating system to another.

    When are we going to make universal Access universal?  When will
we be able to press a key, no matter which LSB compliant distro and get
an accessible installation, or have a screen reader/magnifier start up?
When are we going to stop monkeying around with the trivial crap and
actually do something intelligent for ourselves?  When are we
handicapped going to become part of the Linux Standards Base?

I read these posts on the Orca list as well as the Ubuntu Accessibility list, and I just feel awful because I hardly know a thing. I have a little bit of vision which allows me to use the eZoom plugin in Compiz, but I don't think that it is going to last, and I definitely do not plan on switching back to Windows. I just wish that there was some way that I could help, so long as I would have the time to do so.

In any case, thanks for the links.

Hi,

It's sort of little of this little of that, the Python Tutorial at python.org is a good read, but it does go into planet Esoterica as you go and it takes quite a while to really get what is going on. Also, http://www.sthurlow.com/python/ is a beginner's point of view on Python. It starts out stupidly simple but at least it's harder to get lost that way.

I hit the wall when it comes to actually....using it. Sure it's good to be able to write abstract tidbits of code to make math easier on yourself, but what about doing something useful? This is where the resources are lacking.

All laudable goals, but let's not lose sight of the gains we've also
made. I switched from Windows to Linux a few months ago, thanks to the
vinux distribution. I tried doing this several times over the last
decade, but I wasn't successful until just now. I think this says a lot
about how far the state of Linux accessibility has come.

Agree. I'm not using Linux as my main OS, but it has certainly become less annoying to use as of late. Before, I was die-hard CLI. Now I can actually use the GNOME environment without cringing at how laggy Orca is in Firefox and huge lists of files. Obviously there's room for improvement (e.g, Orca performance in Firefox can still use a big boost and accuracy check, as well as general responsiveness is not as good as the Windows counterparts with NVDA). That being said, things are a bit better and will hopefully improve steadily.

Universal access across distributions and operating systems is a
laudable goal, but how realistic is it really? Is this a situation where
we'd just be tilting at windmills? I mean if everyone could agree then
we wouldn't have so many distributions and operating systems in the
first place.

This is Linux's biggest fault. On one hand, you have 200+ distributions to pick from, and probably only 10-15 of those are actually accessible without having major issues. And that's probably a bit too positive. I don't just mean they stuck Orca in and left it at that, I mean actually having a snappy, well-put together OS that isn't going to need a boatload of configuring for the nooby. For noobs and Linux, Ubuntu and/or Vinux is really their only GUI option where they can use various Windows apps natively under Linux and gradually move into the Linux world. People will probably say we should all use Arch, but not everybody can just pick up a Linux book and start configuring their Arch system to their heart's content. As far as consoles go, Speakup is the solution, or Emacspeak, it's the GUI in all its flavors that really puts us blind and other disabled people on the brink of falling behind the pack.

Finally, I don't consider these questions to be trivial. I have a job
right now that requires I have access to Linux, I can access wireless
networks, I can use IRC, I can read email and so on. I need answers to
these questions now if I'm going to keep my job. I can't wait for these
questions to be answered or these issues to be addressed until after we
have universal access across distributions and operating systems. I just
can't wait that long.

Yes indeed. Universal access? What does this actually even mean? To me, it means not just the visually impaired user of technology, but the deaf and physically handicapped. Speech recognition under Linux is lacking or so I've heard, and there's probably other areas where Linux doesn't even scratch the surface of what needs to be done for other disabled individuals to effectively use their machines. Having universsal access will probably never happen. Nobody really likes getting involved in the nitty-gritty, and all the really awesome coders are finding big buck jobs and using Windows, or at the most, Linux as a server for websites etc.

People need to start coming to major conclusions if we want something to get done on a more global/distrowide level.  I'm on some other a11y Linux lists for various distros, and all they seem to do is bitch and moan about needing to make plans, and then argue amongst themselves about how to target accessibility in their distro, which leads to lots of quoted messages and arguments about the argument that started the initial argument about arguing about accessibility and usability, which in turn brings in another longwinded string of stuff hardly related to accessibility in the first place. In short, instead of coding, they're all just trying to figure out how to implement a11y and the result is almost no progress, at least in my eyes. Why don't people just start coding and experimenting rather than checking with the big elitists if it's OK? The community will decide in the end if their efforts are good or not.

Now, to back up my whinefest, I'm actually learning Python. It's been slow going, as I have a real life, but I'm going to eventually try helping instead of blowing hot air.

Oh, and yeah, a unified hotkey on any Linux distro to bring up accessibility options would be welcome. Now we'd just need to get the actual access there. Fluxbox, IseWM, and other obscure windowmanagers, anyone? Oh, what about Puppy Linux? Still not accessible. Why? It's too hard. Boo hoo!

    Hello all,

    Sure would be nice if some of these accessibility functions
could be added to the LSB the way the filesystem is.  We have Alt+F2 and

sure as hell be nice to press a certain keystroke and get the accessible
installation, plus it sure would save a hell of a lot of posts on, "How

Universal Access isn't very universal at all with no standards from one
distribution to another, let alone from one operating system to another.

    When are we going to make universal Access universal?  When will
we be able to press a key, no matter which LSB compliant distro and get
an accessible installation, or have a screen reader/magnifier start up?
When are we going to stop monkeying around with the trivial crap and
actually do something intelligent for ourselves?  When are we
handicapped going to become part of the Linux Standards Base?

I use ps all the time just not for looking for that. :) I had already read the stuff on the web on how to change managers in Ubuntu it just did not look like it had worked. Now I have used ps and found that both my computers are running metacity. on one the windows-m sequence works on the other it does not. Still not sure where to look for the difference that is causing that behavior. Tom On Fri, 12 Aug 2011, Jason White wrote: > Tom Masterson wrote: > >> So that leads to two questions: >> >> 1.

It would be a good project for someone to extend this to add support for tagged PDF and to provide the option of an accessible version of the document. git clone git://github.com/andreasgal/pdf.js.git It runs inside a browser - no plug-in required, of course, and it's still in early development.

Which was why I suggested putting guidelines in the Linux Standards Base, which most distributions follow. If we can decide on where binaries are kept, where man pages are stored, and what the /etc directory is for, then we should be able to decide what key combination(s) start accessibility functions, and how to boot up an accessible linux installation, and which keystrokes will unmute/raise/lower the sound volume. It's either establishing standards we want to see, or keep having to answer the same questions again and again, when all the commercial operating systems are "so much better." We're actually ahead of the game where Microsoft is concerned. It may have Narrator, but you can't access the web with it to get a better screen reader. At least some form of accessibility comes with most of the popular linux distributions now.

I'm a fairly new Orca user.

I'm running VInux 3.2.1, with Orca 3.1.2-xdesktop.

I'm looking to change the way some punctuation is spoken so that it helps my efficiency using Orca with web development and programming.

For example.
For full stop to be read as 'dot' which I think it does already,
! to be read as 'bang'
# to be read as hash only and not number
< to be read as 'less'
and > to be read as 'greater'.

Is there any special characters I need to denote in the pronunciation table to define I wish to change the way a symbol is spoken?

All advice appreciated.
Regards,
Craig

To open up a new tab which ist a dedicated calendar page, you can press CTRL+SHIFT+C.

See this comment on Chromium's bug tracker regarding to how a Chromium = dev feels about supporting accessibility on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=3D24585#c5 The comment is a over a year old, but from what I have noticed, it is = still the approach Chromium follows. If my understanding is correct, the = reason why Chromium needs to implement all the platform-specific = accessibility over and over again even though WebKit already contains it = is because "chromium" is a separate WebKit port alongside "win", "mac" = and "gtk" ports, so it needs to reimplement platform-specific graphics = drawing, accessibility, networking and other things (just like each of = the others ports do). It cannot just pick the platform-specific work = already done in "win", "mac" and "gtk" WebKit ports, since "chromium" = itself is a separate WebKit port.

I think epiphony is coming up nicely as well. So let's first see how far we get with firefox, and I am sure things will soon be great. happy hacking. Krishnakant.

And I apologize for the confusion. I'm using Ubuntu 11.04 but without vinux, for now anyway. Sometimes Orca will tell me the current desktop environment is Unity; others it will tell me that it is classic gnome. The behavior of the keyboard commands, though, seems to be the same. To me, and I'm still pretty newbie, so that may not mean much. Anyway, I tried using Control + ALT + TAB and got nothing. I tried tabbing through the icons, and again got nothing. I need to use F10 to get to the same place, then use the arrow keys to move between the menu offerings and the icons for networking and so forth. I wonder if it's vinux that makes the difference? Or if when Orca announces that the desktop environment is classic gnome, that's a mistake somehow... There are some things I don't like that much about Unity for using it with Orca, so I will be looking for alternatives like vinux, once I know what I'm doing and am caught up on my work. /smile/ Tami On Mon, 2011-08-08 at 13:57 -0500, Christopher Chaltain wrote: > I don't understand the instructions below.

I'm on a laptop computer, but using a wireless desktop keyboard, so that's how I configured Orca. Don't know if that makes a difference or not.

Well, except for the frustrations with trying to get past the basics so we can contribute to the next generations of improvements. Do either of you -- or anyone -- use Orca with only speech for programming? I've been losing vision for quite a while now and am happy to say good-bye to the headaches from supplementing audio with my eyes, but... I'm wondering how people get past the confusing pronunciation of code or even directories and paths? Practicing when I have time, but it makes me crazy.

Pretty sick of Ubuntu and Windows for their graphics, and at least Apple make a good go at making their operating system accessible. Sigh. Any help please? How about Fedora?

Other distributions mentioned frequently are Debian (my personal choice) and Arch Linux. OpenSuse isn't mentioned as often, but Suse developers have contributed to accessibility, which may or may not be indicative of how accessible their distribution is by default. Remember, it's Linux: you can modify it, install and remove packages, configure software etc., until it does what you want. The choice of distribution is really a question of which one gives you the shortest path to where you want to go. They all have different policies and priorities. In my experience, it's mostly beginners or near beginners who go distribution shopping; experienced users tend to settle on one or two that they like and customize the configuration according to their preferences, switching only when there is a significant gain to be made.

Http://www.archlinux.Org There is a talking installer available from the wiki. It starts with a = minimal text console installation, and you can then install any packages = you like, including GNOME. It's nearly the most customizable distro = available, and you never have to install anything you don't want just = because it's what the distro developers think most people want. This is = nothing against Ubuntu. I definitely believe there's a place for it.

I'd put myself as an experienced person, but looking for 1 or 2 different distributions to finally sit comfortably in, and whether Orca works well in them. And I've been running Ubuntu and Vinux which are practically the same but one modded for VI for almost 2 years now. Well overall in my search Debian has popped out more so than others. Any idea about Fedora or CentOS - the Red Hat side? and if there's anything more you could tell me about Debian, from the Orca point of view and experience?

Fedora moved to Gnome 3 as of their latest release, including AT-SPI 2, if I recall correctly. I don't run Fedora; I'm only basing this on what I've read elsewhere. Thus if you want to delay the move to Gnome 3, you would choose Fedora 14. I run Debian on both my desktop and laptop systems. I would suggest running either the testing or unstable distributions of Debian to keep up with software upgrades, including Orca upgrades. Debian Experimental has Orca 3.0.4, which I expect will move into the Unstable and thereafter the testing distribution at some point. Packages for AT-SPI 2 are under development and already available in experimental for people who want to participate in finding and fixing bugs. I installed the version of Orca currently in experimental, which has been reliable so far. However, I do 99% of my work from the Linux console (i.e., the shell, Emacs, console-based tools etc.), so I don't use Orca frequently - it's mostly there to provide Web access.

I am looking for a lightweight, but robust, and would be good for web development, server administration, and programming too. I've marked Fedora, Debian and I might just mark Arch down too. How's things with Orca in Arch, assuming you use it as a screen reader and not it's magnifier? End of the day, after a few more suggestion, if any more come through, I can also virtual machine these and test out what I think will be great for me. Thanks to all, Craig -- C. M.

It starts with a minimal text console installation, and you can then install any packages you like, including GNOME. It's nearly the most customizable distro available, and you never have to install anything you don't want just because it's what the distro developers think most people want. This is nothing against Ubuntu. I definitely believe there's a place for it. I just wanted better flexibility, so I tried Arch, and I'm not looking back. > ~Kyle > Sent from my Wishdroid! :) > > _______________________________________________ > orca-list mailing list > orca-list@gnome.org > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/orca-list > Visit http://live.gnome.org/Orca for more information on Orca. > The manual is at http://library.gnome.org/users/gnome-access-guide/nightly/ats-2.html > The FAQ is at http://live.gnome.org/Orca/FrequentlyAskedQuestions > Netiquette Guidelines are at http://live.gnome.org/Orca/FrequentlyAskedQuestions/NetiquetteGuidelines > Log bugs and feature requests at http://bugzilla.gnome.org > Find out how to help at http://live.gnome.org/Orca/HowCanIHelp From kyle4jesus@gmail.com Mon Aug 15 05:23:38 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 855DE75007E for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 05:23:38 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.69 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.69 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001, T_TO_NO_BRKTS_FREEMAIL=0.01] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id xlnkvCIpDg0K for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 05:23:36 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-yw0-f54.google.com (mail-yw0-f54.google.com [209.85.213.54]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 9905E750079 for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 05:23:28 +0000 (UTC) Received: by ywo32 with SMTP id 32so2848046ywo.27 for ; Sun, 14 Aug 2011 22:23:26 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=from:reply-to:to:subject:date:message-id:x-mailer:mime-version :content-language:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; bh=E8WnYzT1/3PeIUdHBQD7felIG+gdkbn3+hAtikbwe3s=; b=QQcMVI+T24MMLpKQM+4f+DN3mWzcy/SJnO80ikWnUUG5NP8W2X3hr109fT7xKnPKsd yHuojJt89pA+379H3LBGIETJIf52PSsFhBygz/Qq9vstGyIPDNuwZwlNo5WsGRr732dC 4eJruCRJEDYMFhkHbZf6Q2Sfe+QgTnKUkiUoU= Received: by 10.236.184.169 with SMTP id s29mr10975715yhm.62.1313385806799; Sun, 14 Aug 2011 22:23:26 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [26.224.201.224] (m9e2c36d0.tmodns.net [208.54.44.158]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id f4sm3433274yhn.55.2011.08.14.22.23.22 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Sun, 14 Aug 2011 22:23:26 -0700 (PDT) From: "Kyle" To: orca-list@gnome.org Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2011 01:23:18 -0500 Message-ID: X-Mailer: EPOC Email Version 2.10 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Language: i-default Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Subject: Re: [orca-list] Alternative to Ubuntu?

I don't know if you feel the same. I know that it would be good to have one point of contact, but this means that we all have to see unrelated posts and that we get less productive. Please remember: * the orca list, is for discussing orca related problems, and how a particular problem should be solved if we have alternatives. * general linux discussions and accessibility of each distro may be discussed on the blinux list * vinux related questions should be on the vinux mailing list * ubuntu/unity problems may be best discusssed on the ubuntu accessibility mailing list.

I've brought this up many times previously, and generally people agree, but nothing gets done. I was thinking that I might just leave the list this time. I get that it seems nice to help people, and to answer off-topic questions. However, think of what would happen if *everyone* on *every list* did that. If my Scala list is spammed with Ruby questions, my ATX Hackerspace group gets postings on San Francisco events, and my Android list gets overwhelmed by questions from iPhone users, then what's the point of mailing lists? For every one person who says "I can't get my wireless to work. I use Orca. I'll send that to the Orca list!" hundreds of us spend time deleting. And just where do we draw the line in that case? At the moment I'm learning about internet marketing. I use Orca. Should I start posting questions about advertising and affiliate marketing here because I happen to use Orca while doing these things?

I know it seems logical to talk about Ubuntu on the Ubuntu access list, Vinux on the Vinux mailing list, general Linux access on blinux, etc however what most of us need is a single point of contact where information can be shared with one another without having to subscribe to 15 different mailing lists just to try and get all of our questions answered. I myself am not a linux newby, but if I were I wouldn't have a clue where to start unless someone compiled a list of ask questions x on list x, ask questions y on list y, and ask questions belonging to z on z list. That's just too confusing. So if the Orca list isn't the proper forum or list for this then perhaps we need to start up or point users to the proper list. Cheers!

Admittedly, I have gone off topic with my "alternatives to ubuntu" post. And, though I didn't know of the blinux list, I see that now I should of directed that there. So my apologies for that. Though, I was trying to get advice from an Orca point of view. Also, I don't know if I've introduced myself to the list, so if that is a thing the orca-list like, then I'll follow this up with an introduction. Also, could you provide email links to these other lists? I'm already a member of the Vinux support list, but in general for everybody else, it would be good for reference. Also, is this list a good place to make suggestions for features for Orca? I'd imagine it is, if so, there are issues I'm having with Orca, at least, in terms of features I'd like. Regards, and apologies again for my off-topic posts. Craig -- C. M.

I know that there's been some interest in making Chrome accessible with Orca on Linux, so I decided to join this list to talk about it some more. To answer some questions from previous posts, yes, Chrome does use GTK+, so making the user interface accessible will be relatively easy. Unfortunately, Chrome does not use the GTK+ port of Webkit, and there are technical reasons why it's not possible for us to use that code directly, so we'd have to rewrite most of that code. My question is, are there any Orca / GTK+ developers on this list who would be interested in working on this with us? Based on my experience making Chrome accessible on Windows and Mac, making a web browser accessible is very tricky and complicated, and almost impossible without some help from someone who's really familiar with the screen reader's source code. Ideally I'd like to find someone who'd be willing to compile Chromium from source and then help test patches that make it accessible and help debug things when Orca doesn't behave as expected. - Dominic From chaltain@gmail.com Mon Aug 15 20:12:23 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5994F75016A for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 20:12:23 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.69 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.69 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001, T_TO_NO_BRKTS_FREEMAIL=0.01] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id zDhZLzF4crBl for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 20:12:20 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-yx0-f182.google.com (mail-yx0-f182.google.com [209.85.213.182]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B003B75004D for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 20:12:12 +0000 (UTC) Received: by yxl31 with SMTP id 31so4813641yxl.27 for ; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:12:11 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=message-id:date:from:user-agent:mime-version:to:subject:references :in-reply-to:content-type:content-transfer-encoding; bh=OVtEdSL4Mk3N96OgL/EMSphwS/5fSNVEoYKQ/AJ4f1Y=; b=CzcZuYgJHhib2zfSMULrOICWsLkmKTOIw2qE+UePFL7AInFgnWssBU++ErlQn+MeVE /cvykeGYexqVIs1rBQVp+o1imdDgSC0VfjWkM1Tk+713rLwK9O3q5Qi7Sch88xdrOCZW 1TYJXmjkChIvaLay9WAFRBIz3lal/Wo6m+ovE= Received: by 10.236.116.168 with SMTP id g28mr12940581yhh.63.1313439130912; Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:12:10 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [192.168.1.113] (cpe-173-174-56-115.austin.res.rr.com [173.174.56.115]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id z29sm1092678yhn.2.2011.08.15.13.12.10 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:12:10 -0700 (PDT) Message-ID: <4E497D99.7060902@gmail.com> Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2011 15:12:09 -0500 From: Christopher Chaltain User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.17) Gecko/20110516 Lightning/1.0b2 Thunderbird/3.1.10 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: orca-list@gnome.org References: <20110815194939.GA16134@Jupiter> <4E4979F7.4070307@thewordnerd.info> In-Reply-To: <4E4979F7.4070307@thewordnerd.info> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Re: [orca-list] scope of this list X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 15 Aug 2011 20:12:23 -0000 First, let me say that I'll go along with whatever the list or the moderators decide. In general, I prefer well moderated lists myself, but I suspect I'm guilty of straying off topic on this list. I agree with this in theory, but it would be good to know some examples of some off topic posts. I don't find this to be a very high traffic list. Also, the screen reader is such an important part of the system for a blind person, it could be hard to draw that line on when an issue is off topic. For these reasons, I think we should try to keep things on topic, but we should also be pretty liberal in what we consider on topic for this list. On a related point, good subject lines would help me manage the traffic on this and all lists. I'm not sure if it's just me, but coming up with good subject lines and changing them when the discussion changes seems to be a dying art.

I can imagine that would have something to do with GTK+ more than Orca or WebKit. I'm also interested in development. since I'm a web developer (though only limited to HTML, CSS and a small bit of PHP) I'd like to eventually get technically involved in the development of accessibility with many applications and products on Linux, let alone Chrome. If there is any way I could be of assistance in testing, I'd be happy to help. Regards, Craig -- C. M.

Although it is ultimately the choice of the moderator of the list; but since it was asked, I think that we all need a place to turn to when things aren't going as expected in a new or unfamiliar operating system. And if this list were inundated with Orca questions alone, then I think it would make sense to try to hold the list to Only Orca questions. But if we want to promote Orca and Ubuntu, we should offer, along with real assistance, information to joining a better list, in case the person with the question would like to join another group, but I believe it is not to the best interest of Orca to not help folks who need help in general as well.

Subject:	[orca-list] Accessibility of Chromium / Google Chrome
Author:	"Dominic Mazzoni" <dmazzoni@google.com>
Date:		August 15th 2011 15:10

Hello,

I'm one of the developers of Chrome accessibility support at Google. I
know that there's been some interest in making Chrome accessible with
Orca on Linux, so I decided to join this list to talk about it some
more.

To answer some questions from previous posts, yes, Chrome does use
GTK+, so making the user interface accessible will be relatively easy.
Unfortunately, Chrome does not use the GTK+ port of Webkit, and there
are technical reasons why it's not possible for us to use that code
directly, so we'd have to rewrite most of that code.

My question is, are there any Orca / GTK+ developers on this list who
would be interested in working on this with us? Based on my experience
making Chrome accessible on Windows and Mac, making a web browser
accessible is very tricky and complicated, and almost impossible
without some help from someone who's really familiar with the screen
reader's source code. Ideally I'd like to find someone who'd be
willing to compile Chromium from source and then help test patches
that make it accessible and help debug things when Orca doesn't behave
as expected.

- Dominic

I agree with Glenn on this point. I'm a moderator over on the vinux support and development lists. while we try to keep things vinux related, sometimes users will discuss windows related accessibility with linux in mind because some of them want to switch, or find an alternative to the windows software they love so much. the same applies to mac. we've also had people discussing android. we could take 2 approaches to the problem. moderate the list and complain that our blood pressure is rizing as moderators trying to moderate out the crap, then ban people like they do on the jaws list. or simply let users discuss topics as long as they don't get out of hand and too off topic, and as long as subjects are relevant. the latter is the logical approach and users feel welcome and encouraged to use gnu/linux, even if they're not using vinux. I agree that on lists such as the orca list and jaws list, moderators do have to take a stand when it comes to keeping things more on topic, but sometimes its simpler just to let people ask their questions and if they can't obtain the answer from the orca list, to send them elsewhere. on the jaws list, they just ban you if you go slightly off topic and that puts a fair few users off. My point is that new users can very easily feel intimidated and can be put off by someone sounding negative if unintentionally. I think you guys are doing a great job, keep up the excellent work and i'd like to thank the mods for not banning people when things get a little OT. a forum you may wish to recommend to people is at: http://www.vitektalk.com/ All the best, Mo.

The point is not to deny helping each other, but to have this help targeted, as well as having space for feature discussions and improvement suggestions. Most of us are subscribed to these various mailing lists, but when I go to the blinux list I am happy and have the time to help, and when i read the orca list i want to see if someone has reported a problem that i've come across, or if i wish to discuss a particular feature. I know for certain that I am not the only person that do this. It is just a little bit of a colture difference for people that come from windows, and its another small thing that we all had to learn at some point. The idea is not to be negative or unhelpful, but to be constructive and guide people to the right channels. @CraigBlake, I can't remember if the various email lists are linked to from the orca wiki, I will look and update if they are not there already. Yes, discussion of features/improvements are very much ontopic for this list. If your idea is very clear and you don't wish to discuss it with other users first, then you can open a bugzilla ticket with your feature request/improvement with a detailed description. Sometimes we reach a consensis then a ticket is opened. If the suggestions are unrelated, then one email per suggestion with a good subject please :) @Nolan, it would be a shame if all of us old orca list members unsubscribed, it is better if we try to work together to remind each other when we go off topic, otherwise you would not be the only one to unsubscribe, and our orca would be the worse off. @ChristopherChaltain, liberal is good, but having to delete over 100 messages for the last few weeks unrelated to orca or orca specific features is not ideal. If you want a comparison just look at the archive of the last two months, and the same two months from two years ago, and look at the ratio between related/unrelated messages. Your point of having good clear subject lines is very valuable, most these things are mensioned in the orca list guidelines linked to at the bottom of each orca list email: http://live.gnome.org/Orca/FrequentlyAskedQuestions/NetiquetteGuidelines It is excellent that we are getting more users and every single one is welcome. @mattias, the blinux list would be more active if more people asked questions there.

If John's messages here prompt a revival of the Blinux list, I'm sure that will be a good thing. I sometimes have questions that would be better for that presumably generic list on Linux and the blind than for this or any other more specialized list. When I last looked at the list, though, it was unused, and you can't seek wisdom at a place where there are no wiseguys to offer it. I don't think I've been far off the topic in my questions on this list. There have been times, though, where I wasn't sure where my question belonged. If I used only Vinux or Debian or Arch, I'd add that list to my small repertoir, and would have one more place to go with questions. I think I'd have to delete well over a hundred messages if I were on all or even most of the lists people have mentioned in this thread, though, so the inconvenience is much less when dealing with both on-topic and off-topic Orca list messages that I don't need to look at. In short, on topic is of course desirable. Accurate subject lines are especially desirable. Still, I won't cry a river if (though maybe an occasional stream) if I have to delete messages that probably should be somewhere else. Of course, I also won't cry if the moderators find a gentle way to reduce the number of such messages. Al -----Original Message----- From: orca-list-bounces@gnome.org [mailto:orca-list-bounces@gnome.org] On Behalf Of Jon Sent: Monday, August 15, 2011 6:17 PM To: orca-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [orca-list] scope of this list Thanks for your replies, @ThomasWard, yes you are saying that you want a single point of contact, and what some people feel is that maybe the blinux list should be used for this purpose, and if more specialist advise is required then one should ask the question/report the problem on the specific list. The point is not to deny helping each other, but to have this help targeted, as well as having space for feature discussions and improvement suggestions. Most of us are subscribed to these various mailing lists, but when I go to the blinux list I am happy and have the time to help, and when i read the orca list i want to see if someone has reported a problem that i've come across, or if i wish to discuss a particular feature. I know for certain that I am not the only person that do this. It is just a little bit of a colture difference for people that come from windows, and its another small thing that we all had to learn at some point. The idea is not to be negative or unhelpful, but to be constructive and guide people to the right channels. @CraigBlake, I can't remember if the various email lists are linked to from the orca wiki, I will look and update if they are not there already. Yes, discussion of features/improvements are very much ontopic for this list. If your idea is very clear and you don't wish to discuss it with other users first, then you can open a bugzilla ticket with your feature request/improvement with a detailed description. Sometimes we reach a consensis then a ticket is opened. If the suggestions are unrelated, then one email per suggestion with a good subject please :) @Nolan, it would be a shame if all of us old orca list members unsubscribed, it is better if we try to work together to remind each other when we go off topic, otherwise you would not be the only one to unsubscribe, and our orca would be the worse off. @ChristopherChaltain, liberal is good, but having to delete over 100 messages for the last few weeks unrelated to orca or orca specific features is not ideal. If you want a comparison just look at the archive of the last two months, and the same two months from two years ago, and look at the ratio between related/unrelated messages. Your point of having good clear subject lines is very valuable, most these things are mensioned in the orca list guidelines linked to at the bottom of each orca list email: http://live.gnome.org/Orca/FrequentlyAskedQuestions/NetiquetteGuidelines It is excellent that we are getting more users and every single one is welcome. @mattias, the blinux list would be more active if more people asked questions there.

Be courteous. When someone poses a question or starts a thread that that is off-topic, simply inform them with kind words a suggestion about a more appropriate list for their particular topic. 2. Set up a wiki page (if one doesn't exist somewhere) listing the suggested alternative lists (or forums) to go to. And include that link in the auto-sig of this mailing list. This not only benefits keeping this list clean and on-topic, but also we do a public service by helping to bring awareness of other important lists that have been neglected.

I agree we should find a gentle way to keep people on topic. By "liberal" I didn't mean anything goes, I just meant that we need to have a broad concept of what it means to be Orca related. Orca is just such an intrinsic part of the system for a blind person, it may not be clear to the user if they're seeing something related to Orca or something else in the system or application. I'm just afraid that if we try to adhere to closely to one persons concept of what is and is not on topic for Orca that we could create more traffic--in arguing about what is and is not on topic--than we would eliminate. I guess I'm saying that we should err on the side of a question being on topic if it's close, and put our emphasis in redirecting posts that are clearly off topic. Unfortunately, any moderation is going to frustrate some users. I know on the JAWS list there are people who are adamant that they can ask any question they want about their PC, Windows or any application, because after all, they use JAWS to use their PC!

Its all fine to recommend someone checkout the blinux list, but the last time I checked it the blinux list was pretty much dead. I can see recommending that list if it gets revived, once again becomes active, but the last time I was there it seemed to me to be very unused and forgotten about. That's why I joined say the Orca list because there is an active community talking about Linux access and applications on a fairly frequent basis. Cheers!

I think this is a reasonable assumption. And I think that it is not unreasonable to classify things as "on topic" if they specifically pertain to using upstream Orca with upstream tools. The latter being definitely GNOME, and possibly KDE/Qt -- depending on what that community wishes to do. > I'm just afraid that if we try to adhere to closely to one > persons concept of what is and is not on topic for Orca that we could > create more traffic--in arguing about what is and is not on topic--than > we would eliminate.

Agreed. > Unfortunately, any moderation is going to frustrate some users. And this is why I've tried to avoid doing so. And not counting all those 'test' messages which -- should they persist in the future -- I am indeed tempted to moderate, I personally do not think the list has gotten that flooded or that out of control. I personally like having a more open and relaxed community in which we all constructively discuss free and open accessibility solutions for users who are blind. One in which our guiding principles are common sense and respect for others rather than netiquette documents.

There's always the accessiblelinux list I started a while back, it has a few subscribers but not enough to make it a very useful info resource yet. It is extremely low traffic at the moment. You can subscribe by visiting:
http://www.freelists.org/list/accessiblelinux
I suppose a link could be put on the Wiki for anyone with questions that aren't Orca related .
thanks

Greetings!

If John's messages here prompt a revival of the Blinux list, I'm sure that
will be a good thing.  I sometimes have questions that would be better for
that presumably generic list on Linux and the blind than for this or any
other more specialized list.  When I last looked at the list, though, it was
unused, and you can't seek wisdom at a place where there are no wiseguys to
offer it.  

I don't think I've been far off the topic in my questions on this list.
There have been times, though, where I wasn't sure where my question
belonged.  If I used only Vinux or Debian or Arch, I'd add that list to my
small repertoir, and would have one more place to go with questions.  I
think I'd have to delete well over a hundred messages if I were on all or
even most of the lists people have mentioned in this thread, though, so the
inconvenience is much less when dealing with both on-topic and off-topic
Orca list messages that I don't need to look at.

In short, on topic is of course desirable.  Accurate subject lines are
especially desirable.  Still, I won't cry a river if (though maybe an
occasional stream) if I have to delete messages that probably should be
somewhere else.  Of course, I also won't cry if the moderators find a gentle
way to reduce the number of such messages.

Subject: Re: [orca-list] scope of this list

Thanks for your replies,

@ThomasWard, yes you are saying that you want a single point of contact, and
what some people feel is that maybe the blinux list should be used for this
purpose, and if more specialist advise is required then one should ask the
question/report the problem on the specific list.
The point is not to deny helping each other, but to have this help targeted,
as well as having space for feature discussions and improvement suggestions.
Most of us are subscribed to these various mailing lists, but when I go to
the blinux list I am happy and have the time to help, and when i read the
orca list i want to see if someone has reported a problem that i've come
across, or if i wish to discuss a particular feature.
I know for certain that I am not the only person that do this. It is just a
little bit of a colture difference for people that come from windows, and
its another small thing that we all had to learn at some point. The idea is
not to be negative or unhelpful, but to be constructive and guide people to
the right channels.


@CraigBlake, I can't remember if the various email lists are linked to from
the orca wiki, I will look and update if they are not there already.
Yes, discussion of features/improvements are very much ontopic for this
list. If your idea is very clear and you don't wish to discuss it with other
users first, then you can open a bugzilla ticket with your feature
request/improvement with a detailed description. Sometimes we reach a
consensis then a ticket is opened.
If the suggestions are unrelated, then one email per suggestion with a good
subject please :)

@Nolan, it would be a shame if all of us old orca list members unsubscribed,
it is better if we try to work together to remind each other when we go off
topic, otherwise you would not be the only one to unsubscribe, and our orca
would be the worse off.

@ChristopherChaltain, liberal is good, but having to delete over 100
messages for the last few weeks unrelated to orca or orca specific features
is not ideal. If you want a comparison just look at the archive of the last
two months, and the same two months from two years ago, and look at the
ratio between related/unrelated messages.
Your point of having good clear subject lines is very valuable, most these
things are mensioned in the orca list guidelines linked to at the bottom of
each orca list email: 
http://live.gnome.org/Orca/FrequentlyAskedQuestions/NetiquetteGuidelines
It is excellent that we are getting more users and every single one is
welcome.

@mattias, the blinux list would be more active if more people asked
questions there.

Thanks.

I am interested in this effort, and I would also like to get ChromeVox working. The problem with the latter is that I don't know how to obtain useful debugging information, given that the Chrome/Chromium user interface isn't accessible under Linux when ChromeVox isn't successfully running. One question to which I don't have an answer is whether the Debian package of Chromium includes the accessibility and TTS extensions needed by ChromeVox, but I can pursue this inquiry further if nobody else is already doing so. I am also in a position to compile software from source code and to apply patches, given build instructions. If anyone is already building Debian packages then I can obviously download those instead of duplicating effort.

It sounds like there's a lot of interest. I'll try to get some initial infrastructure in place to get Chromium to expose its web contents using ATK - which may take me some time - and then Joanie, maybe I'll reach out to you off-list to get some help setting it up properly so that Orca actually reads it as a web page.

While the idea of keeping list to there topics and try and do that tightly might sound desirable, I think it isn't helpful and may actually be negative. Firstly it isn't always clear as to what is on and off topic for a list. OK, some criteria has been laid out, however even that has grey areas. Where might such a question as "The distribution I use (distribution X) has served me well, I find that now there integration of gnome accessibility has become poorer and so distribution X is poor to use. What distributions might people suggest me to try and use which will give me a good experience of using gnome with orca? Please keep in mind that I have come from distribution X and I like how that distribution works for system administration (IE. its package manager, etc)." Well it might belong on the orca-list as I want to know about the experience of using Orca, but I feel under what has been said may be it should be on the blinux list as I am really asking about the accessibility of distributions. Another approach might say, well you really should be going to the lists/forums of distribution X and trying to get them to fix the accessibility issues. Also may be other distribution X users might be able to point you towards other distributions which have similar tools for system administration. I guess yet another approach might be to say, have in mind some distributions you are interested in (IE. for this case those which are similar to distribution X) and then go round those distribution lists asking how well accessibility works on those distributions. So for a very simple looking question we have potentially four approaches of where to go. This leads to my second point, with so many options for where might be appropriate to ask, should on topic rules be too strict then this may lead to someone being too concerned for being told "clear off this is not the list for that" that they may just decide to not ask the question at all. Should people feel unable to ask questions they need to know the answer to, either they will be very unproductive or they may decide to give up on Linux and Orca as they cannot get what they need to do done. Even more technical questions which may seem more Orca specific may actually not turn out to really be an Orca issue. An example is that on my archlinux system libreoffice seems to be inaccessible with Orca. This might be an LibreOffice issue, it might be an Orca issue, it might be something to do with at-spi or it may even be an ArchLinux specific issue. Other than the second case, I guess under what you say report the issue here could be off topic. I feel Orca is too connected with other parts of the system to be properly separated from them at times, therefore there are times when you will have to live with some overlap. Finally, although I am saying we should be accepting of the scope being broader than Orca and just Orca, we should all try and use some common sense when posting. May be asking questions like: Is this something of interest to Orca users (eg. there was a post about voiceman, while not about Orca it was something which I might have been interested in, so I would still consider relevant), might Orca users/developers be the best people to assist with this or are there better people to ask. OK, I did say finally on the last paragraph, but this just occurred to me, may be the best response those of us in the know can do if there is a clearly off topic posting is to try and educate the person on where to go. Politely point out that this is the Orca list, people here use Orca but probably will use a variety of distributions and so will not be an expert in that specific matter and suggest that they may find experts in the matter on another list (name the list).

Just out of curiosity, I'd like to know (as far as it's possible) some details about why it was not possible. I imagine using the same source code base of WK (that is, the chromium port) for all the versions of chrome could be easier than using each WK port for each version of chrome, but maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, as I said, just wondering :-) > My question is, are there any Orca / GTK+ developers on this list who > would be interested in working on this with us?

I know how to build WK (at least the gtk port) and also the chromium browser on my Linux machine (ideally a release build, dynamically linked -otherwise I usually find problems), as well as ORCA and the ATK/AT-SPI needs, so I think I could help on this too, whenever time permits :-) Hope this helps.

On Windows, Chromium accessibility is improving in each new version - I'd highly recommend you check out the dev channel to see more recent improvements. Most recently we added support for multiline text editing and tables with rowspan or colspan. Support for combo boxes is coming shortly, and after that I think all of the user interface elements will be done, all that's left will be fixing bugs. If you'd like to send more feedback, we created a chromium-accessibility group for discussion. Anyone on this nvda list is welcome to join. http://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/group/chromium-accessibility As for Linux, many of us use ChromeVox - an extension that makes Chrome self-voicing. This is what we're using for Chrome OS accessibility, and it works on desktop Linux as well. http://code.google.com/p/google-axs-chrome/ We don't have plans to support Linux screen readers now, but if there's enough interest and if there's support from the authors of Linux screen readers, that would be a possibility. If you know anyone who works on Orca or other Linux screen reader software who is interested in working with us, feel free to put them in contact with me. - Dominic On Sun, Aug 14, 2011 at 10:49 AM, Tom Masterson wrote: > What is the current state of accessibility of Chromium Web Browser in both > windows and linux? > > Tom > > _______________________________________________ > NVDA-dev mailing list > NVDA-dev@lists.nvaccess.org > http://lists.nvaccess.org/listinfo/nvda-dev > From dmazzoni@google.com Tue Aug 16 14:46:28 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id DF392750387 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 14:46:28 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -5.298 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-5.298 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED=-2.3, RP_MATCHES_RCVD=-1.073, SPF_HELO_PASS=-0.001, SPF_PASS=-0.001, TW_GT=0.077] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 49KFSRO7b+OR for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 14:46:27 +0000 (UTC) Received: from smtp-out.google.com (smtp-out.google.com [216.239.44.51]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CCC6B7500C2 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 14:46:18 +0000 (UTC) Received: from hpaq2.eem.corp.google.com (hpaq2.eem.corp.google.com [172.25.149.2]) by smtp-out.google.com with ESMTP id p7GEkGpn011233 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:16 -0700 DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha1; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=google.com; s=beta; t=1313505976; bh=WAmQmMqRuhc9rCTgXQ/YojJoI08=; h=MIME-Version:In-Reply-To:References:Date:Message-ID:Subject:From: To:Cc:Content-Type; b=pP4Sg6a6VT/bvtgWhXiCyAhr2VeHj+atwE5FwE2/wvYMx5xlN13nIA1x4ehDQqt7p QBn1q0WDM4Ka9KEopmMdA== DomainKey-Signature: a=rsa-sha1; s=beta; d=google.com; c=nofws; q=dns; h=dkim-signature:mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date: message-id:subject:from:to:cc:content-type:x-system-of-record; b=DoA5tcVFPv7UYT/44mj9SnCLwgwlML0uV/bslGhEh6TrPAMj0EjA7tf0IM1L2woBC PRP6RstHe21QM9laMnmjw== Received: from iye16 (iye16.prod.google.com [10.241.50.16]) by hpaq2.eem.corp.google.com with ESMTP id p7GEkDFI012465 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=RC4-SHA bits=128 verify=NOT) for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:14 -0700 Received: by iye16 with SMTP id 16so9722053iye.1 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:13 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=google.com; s=beta; h=mime-version:in-reply-to:references:date:message-id:subject:from:to :cc:content-type; bh=n5DkzVu8BOKjDzMYrPa2scihutQEPcQnoFIdlUZom+Y=; b=scibtiYAVo2JI7tB6LZtGgtHe0228BNGA9OrZhsn2SnaOxCIMCtSyfUOwyDPwGFetR rI6ZmvfAk5t4WAd8q7qQ== Received: by 10.42.156.137 with SMTP id z9mr188169icw.110.1313505973632; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:13 -0700 (PDT) MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.42.156.137 with SMTP id z9mr188164icw.110.1313505973351; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:13 -0700 (PDT) Received: by 10.231.38.13 with HTTP; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:13 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <4E4A4D42.7040102@igalia.com> References: <4E4A4D42.7040102@igalia.com> Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 07:46:13 -0700 Message-ID: From: Dominic Mazzoni To: Mario Sanchez Prada Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-System-Of-Record: true Cc: orca-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [orca-list] Accessibility of Chromium / Google Chrome X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 14:46:29 -0000 On Tue, Aug 16, 2011 at 3:58 AM, Mario Sanchez Prada wrote: >> Unfortunately, Chrome does not use the GTK+ port of Webkit, and there >> are technical reasons why it's not possible for us to use that code >> directly, so we'd have to rewrite most of that code. > > Just out of curiosity, I'd like to know (as far as it's possible) some > details about why it was not possible. For security, Chromium creates a separate renderer process for each tab you have open. These processes each run their own instance of WebKit but they're completely sandboxed so they can't access the operating system - they just receive events from Chromium's main process and send back bitmaps and other metadata. So Chromium's renderer processes don't use a platform-specific port of WebKit, they use a special Chromium port, that shuttles the rendered webpage, including accessibility data, back to the main process securely. It sounds cumbersome but it's actually very fast and efficient, and the total isolation means that it's very hard for a bug in the code running in one tab to result in a security vulnerability. > I know how to build WK (at least the gtk port) and also the chromium > browser on my Linux machine (ideally a release build, dynamically linked > -otherwise I usually find problems), as well as ORCA and the ATK/AT-SPI > needs, so I think I could help on this too, whenever time permits :-) That's great! I'm glad to see there are so many people on this list who will be able to try things out at the source level, that should make it a lot easier. - Dominic From znvyyvfgf@gmail.com Tue Aug 16 18:19:28 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2B682750085 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 18:19:28 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.69 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.69 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001, T_TO_NO_BRKTS_FREEMAIL=0.01] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 4fpwYsC1mkzF for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 18:19:26 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-vw0-f54.google.com (mail-vw0-f54.google.com [209.85.212.54]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 559277500C2 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 18:19:17 +0000 (UTC) Received: by vws18 with SMTP id 18so271912vws.27 for ; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 11:19:16 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=date:from:to:subject:message-id:references:mime-version :content-type:content-disposition:in-reply-to:user-agent; bh=zBe6X8WLeeK9t+7y4+6J/4QlG5oS0uxF6vZAYQsyrZk=; b=VF9CyF2mKKa0gR/fZEM8+E+DYBugtjrsYxiHC3iM6UcXqpg8L+DFcJOLGgbdnBTTGl u0H1GgMSg7ieafyBWtYU1mSySVPBUjELGvAbGTKsY83ljfxlqBowvXn5RJfkhkb6wg9+ 6Ns/bVd0jbRkSgVpmHJRG9VeWrnEU/r+c1qnI= Received: by 10.52.77.5 with SMTP id o5mr60500vdw.83.1313518756173; Tue, 16 Aug 2011 11:19:16 -0700 (PDT) Received: from localhost (c-76-127-93-92.hsd1.ca.comcast.net [76.127.93.92]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id er5sm353144vdb.26.2011.08.16.11.19.13 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Tue, 16 Aug 2011 11:19:14 -0700 (PDT) Date: Tue, 16 Aug 2011 11:24:20 -0700 From: Frost To: orca-list@gnome.org Message-ID: <20110816182420.GA19037@rivensight.dyndns.org> References: <1313376563.3154.5.camel@ubuntu> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <1313376563.3154.5.camel@ubuntu> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.20 (2009-06-14) Subject: Re: [orca-list] Alternative to Ubuntu?

Well, Debian Squeeze is pretty accessible, but like with most things, it leaves something to be desired in the documentation department. I'm always hunting off-site for help where things like SpeakUp and things are concerned. The console works great, once you find the documentation on the web on how to start the stewpid thing, and Orca seems to work pretty well, though I don't use the GUI much. edbrowse hasn't seen an update in 4 years, because it needs a couple extra includes in the sourcecode for it to work with Debian, but all in all, I very rarely boot up Windows any more..

I think it's less productive to subscribe to 40 different mailing lists and wading through some 500 posts per day. What a waste of time, scrolling through everything, looking for anything useful/important/relevant. Lots easier to just google it and ditch the mailing list altogether, because you can't discuss anything here without someone complaining about it and wasting even more bandwidth.

That's agreat distribution. Its based on Ubuntu, but several things have been updated or changed to be more accessible out of the box. Either that or you can try Debian I've had decent success with Debian in the past. Cheers!

Steps to reproduce: 1. From a console, start a Gnome session with startx. 2. Ensure that Orca, with Speech-dispatcher, is run, e.g., by having it configured to start by default. 3. Log out of Gnome, terminating the session. On my system, there is a speech-dispatcher process still running under my user id at this point. 4. Run startx again so that another Gnome session is commenced and Orca is started. At this point there is no speech output. The braille output, however, is fine, so we know that Orca is working as it should be. The work-around is to kill the speech-dispatcher process after logging out of Gnome, i.e., with killall speech-dispatcher. I'm running Orca 3.0.4 with Speech-dispatcher 0.7.1, which is still the latest release, under Debian. Can others reproduce this? Where would you like it reported?

Mozilla bug 546068 is still open however - maybe a change was made somewhere that inadvertently improved this situation. >the edit boxes still don't work for me > however. I can type in them but nothing is echoed by Orca; that > part seems to be unchanged to me. That's unchanged for me as well, noting that the braille output works and has always worked. For people who are primarily using speech, I'm sure this is a real problem. In general, I find that with Orca it is best to leave the speech running, because unfortunately the braille interface isn't as good as it should be. For example, while browsing a Javascript-intensive Web site earlier today, a script inserted some text into a document which was announced immediately by the speech, but the braille display was not updated. I can imagine circumstances in which someone might want this behaviour, but I'm sure it isn't intended. Another serius problem is that one has to use the keyboard to move the caret and interact with user interface controls, whereas it should be possible to do this entirely from the controls of the braille display. On the positive side, there are circumstances in which the braille gives better results than speech currently does, as in the above Mozilla bug.

It sounds like for some reason the python speechd bindings can't open the servers socket, though I'm not really sure why. Could you capture the output of orca the second time you start X hopefully the speechd python lib will throw an exception somewhere.

It starts with a minimal text console installation, and you can then install any packages you like, including GNOME. It's nearly the most customizable distro available, and you never have to install anything you don't want just because it's what the distro developers think most people want. This is nothing against Ubuntu. I definitely believe there's a place for it.

Meaning, can you use the regulare keyboard with out having ot type = commands? Arch starts with the command shell by default. So you will need to type = commands to get it up and running. But you can install GNOME as soon as you = get the OS installed. It won't have all the extra key shortcuts that Vinux = has, but I have found it to be quite useful. Will this installer allow you to install ona second partition? I want to install, but don't want to use it as my main opperating = system. You can install it any way you like. It will even boot from a flash drive. = Partitioning won't be a problem, although it doesn't look like the = installer and partitioner you'll find on Vinux.

If we are talking Fedora its pretty much as accessible as any other Linux distro once you get it installed. I haven't looked at Fedora for a while now, but I believe Bill Acker still runs a Speakup modified version that has some accessibility improvements like Speakup support compiled into the kernel by default etc. Cheers!

You can switch back to the GNOME desktop by following these steps (I am sorry, but I do not know how well Orca works with these steps as I use a screen magnifier via Compiz for access): 1. Log out of your current Unity desktop. 2. At the login screen, select your user name (do not login yet, though. 3. A menu will appear at the bottom of the screen which contains options for desktop environments. If you select "Ubuntu Classic" this will log you in to the classic GNOME desktop which you are used to. I was not too fond of Unity, either; it did not play well with the Compiz Enhanced Zoom Desktop (eZoom) plugin which I use for screen magnification.

You can switch back to the GNOME desktop by following these steps (I am sorry, but I do not know how well Orca works with these steps as I use a screen magnifier via Compiz for access):

1. Log out of your current Unity desktop.

2. At the login screen, select your user name (do not login yet, though.

3. A menu will appear at the bottom of the screen which contains options for desktop environments. If you select "Ubuntu Classic" this will log you in to the classic GNOME desktop which you are used to.

I was not too fond of Unity, either; it did not play well with the Compiz Enhanced Zoom Desktop (eZoom) plugin which I use for screen magnification.

I am sorry that I cannot be of much help in doing this strictly with the keyboard.

Hi,
I installed Ubuntu 11.04 which has unity.
I hate windows 7 and like windows XP.
Now I feel like I'm using windows 7.
Is there a way to get rid of Unity in Ubuntu and go back to the menus like I 
had in 10.10?
I otherwise may go back to 10.10, unless there is enough of a reason to stay 
in 11.04.
I am really annoyed at all this.
I believe in "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

I'm just pointing this out as another option. BTW, I agree with the sentiment that if it isn't broken don't fix it, but I also think it's naive to think that computers, operating systems and applications aren't going to change over time and incorporate new features. After all, nothing in DOS 3.3 was broken, but I'm glad I'm not still running DOS on a PC with 640K of RAM and a 40M hard drive. There are a lot of good features in Windows 7 over Windows XP and that includes accessibility. Unity is new and has some accessibility short comings at the moment, but I look forward to the day when Unity rocks and I'm running Unity on my desktop, laptop, tablet, cell phone and so on! Finally, you could still be running Windows XP. You'll stop getting support for it, and it won't be updated, but it'll still run, and if it isn't broken, why do you need updates anyway? ;-) The security attacks against it will probably also fall off as Windows 7 takes over from XP in the market place. You could also still be running the LTS Ubuntu 10.04. It'll be supported for something like 5 years. Neither 10.10 or 11.04 are LTS releases.

What is the best way to get it started? I installed Oneiric last night as an upgrade from Natty, luckily on a box I use for testing, and on reboot, I saw that orca wasn't installed. I installed it, and still can't get it talking. I've tried the alt+f2, then type in orca approach, but no go. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for the help.

I had a sighted person look when I started Orca from terminal, and there was an error message that said "cannot connect to accessibility bus...Is AT-SPI launcher running?" That indeed tells me why I can't start Orca, but why isn't at-spi firing? Is there something that possibly didn't get migrated in the conversion between gconf and gsettings? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much in advance.

I am using the latest Vinux for USB, where it unzips onto a USB or SD card. I found also that the right control + alt functions don't work. For example, I have to do left control + left alt + T for terminal, and left F1 for the menus. Also, I cannot get voxin installed, This is the Voxin 0.36 and it seems to be missing a package and can't find what it needs on the Debian site when I run the voxin-installer.sh file. This is all frustrating, as I would like the latest package of Ubuntu, but I would like it to be like it was in 10.10. I used sighted help with the Ubuntu and did the log-out and classic display thing, and it was still not quite right. I had hopes of using Vinux, but if Voxin won't work, I'll have to ditch it, as I cannot deal with the voice of eSpeak. I hope someone has some ideas, as I feel that Linux is becoming less of an option for me.

You will want to install libttspico0-utils I believe = it's called. As I recall, the latest speech-dispatcher should work with it = out of the box, but if not, you can install PicoSpeaker from http://picospeaker.Tk and I can set you up with a working speech-dispatcher configuration.

That list gets quite a bit of volume, but it's great for a vinux user or anyone new to Linux. You need Voxin 0.37 for Vinux 3.2.1. Follow the link you got when you purchased Voxin, and you should end up with Voxin 0.37. I use Voxin myself, but there are some advantages to using eSpeak, so I'd suggest trying it from time to time to get used to the voice. For example, I use Voxin on my laptop, but I use eSpeak on my netbook. The problem with the right alt key is because Vinux comes up using the UK keyboard. I assume you're in the US. Here are the instructions from the vinux manual found on your desktop to change your default language and keyboard setting: Changing the Timezone, Language and Keyboard Layout After Installation After installation you may want to change the timezone, language and keyboard layout. The easiest way to change the time zone is to open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) then type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata - this will open a simple text-based interface. Use the Up and Down keys to select the continent you are on and press Enter. Then press the first letter of city you want and then use the Up and Down keys to select it and press Enter. To change the language open the main menu and select System > Administration > Language Support. You will hear an error message saying that Language Support is not installed completely - you can ignore this for now and press Alt+R. Now tab to the Install/Remove Languages button and press Enter. Now press Tab to get to the language list, press the first two letters of the language you want and then use the Up and Down arrows to find it. When you have the right language selected press enter then Tab twice to get to the components options. Here you can select to install translations, spellchecking and writing aids, input methods and extra fonts (if available) by selecting the item and pressing the Space bar to check the box. Then tab twice to the Apply Changes button and press Enter. The language you selected will now be downloaded and installed. However to change the language you will need to log out of the system (by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Backspace) and change the language at the login screen. To do this press Enter on your user name and then Ctrl+Alt+Tab to get to the panel, then press Tab twice to get to the language combobox. Then press the Down key to bring up the list of available languages. Use the Up and Down keys to select the language you want and press Enter. You can then enter your password and press enter to log back in. The easiest way to choose a new keyboard layout is also at the login screen. Follow the instructions above to get to the panel, press Tab three times (or just once if you have just selected the language) and use the Down key to bring up a list of keyboard layouts. You can press the first letter of the layout you want and use the Up and Down keys to find the one you want. Then press Enter, put in your password and press Enter again to log back in.

Does that mean you have to purchase a new license for Voxin? I purchased Voxin quite some time ago, but unfortunately the machine that the e-mail was saved on got whiped out and I no longer have the download link to download updates. Was wondering if there was a fair way to get that information without having to purchase all the Voxin voices again. Cheers!

This copies everything in the terminal to the clipboard. I can then paste it into gedit to pluck out the text I'm interested in. Obviously another solution would be to redirect the output of a command to a file. I'm now off to read Storm's web page.

In one of the steps of the installer I believe it asks what keyboard layout you want. Though it is set as UK, it can also be switched to US. Which is what I do. This is for Vinux 3.0 based off of Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS. That should apply to 3.1and 3.2 as well, I believe.

There's no install involved here, and the default in this USB image is to use the UK keyboard. This isn't a bug in Vinux. On 21/08/11 16:38, Richard wrote: > I've installed Vinux more than once.

At this point, I can't tell for sure if Orca just isn't focusing on a hidden dialog or if the rename function is just plain broken. What happens about 98% of the time is pressing F2 or choosing rename from the application context menu just brings back up the main list or icon view in Nautilus. I only got the rename function to work once last night but none other. Has anyone else had this problem? I'm using Arch Linux, GNOME 3, git version of Orca from about two days ago.

Hi Krishnakant, hi folks

I've been testing LibreOffices accessability for about 2 weeks now as a summer traineeship for an institute for blind people in Denmark. We tested version 3.3.3. Build: 301.
Writer is accessible for at least the basic stuff and we did also test spreadsheet. No problems there. We didn't touch presentation.

We gave some feedback to the Vinux group and with their help will try to spread the feedback to the right places.
If you are working on LibreOffice accessablility I would be very happy to give you my notes! It is my last week here and I want to make shure our work is off use to the community.

Subject: [orca-list] is any one working on libre office accessibility actively?

Hello all,
I see that ever since open office was forked into libre office, there has not been much talk on current development of accessibility with orca?
is there some document which has any updates?
Is any one working on presentation, there are also some issues with spreadsheet as well.
Can some one give some update?
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.

Right now I mostly use ssh to troubleshoot client troubles, but having access to gnome would be better in many situations. Here's how I offer remote assistance over the internet currently using a shell account on an internet server 1. have the client create a reverse ssh tunnel to the internet server: ssh -R 2020:localhost:22 user@internetHost 2. then I log into the internet host box 3. then log into the client machine ssh user@localhost -p 2020 and there I'm in without worrying about IP addresses and port forwarding through routers David From steve.holmes88@gmail.com Thu Aug 25 12:30:36 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 92EAE7501C9 for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:30:36 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.59 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.59 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, DKIM_VALID_AU=-0.1, FREEMAIL_ENVFROM_END_DIGIT=0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001, T_TO_NO_BRKTS_FREEMAIL=0.01] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 2c9-1cUIKk3l for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:30:33 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-yw0-f54.google.com (mail-yw0-f54.google.com [209.85.213.54]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8F2817500E3 for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:30:25 +0000 (UTC) Received: by ywo32 with SMTP id 32so2502641ywo.27 for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 05:30:23 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=date:from:to:subject:message-id:mail-followup-to:references :mime-version:content-type:content-disposition:in-reply-to :user-agent; bh=Mq04CCfQx3LJwHxlvyLWT0uyR1aM+pONhO3ufr26MlY=; b=C6qq7Lzr3N2JVumPQCIrS/b2TAHGE+wsPS/0niO2gBx2sFk+V+QW+mUlk+qn+ASLfu kM6Kf3awJgBHtarNC8q84UDizQwviX9JS/mDskaqSzCxJozMUpoBk8iJrpwRx/DiEauo 0tvdkPHDCG/TinJ62nGET9cnR1FUNhdRkUMOc= Received: by 10.231.41.147 with SMTP id o19mr12763097ibe.82.1314275423724; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 05:30:23 -0700 (PDT) Received: from linlap.wavecable.com (76-14-154-236.rk.wavecable.com [76.14.154.236]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id j4sm589789icx.15.2011.08.25.05.30.21 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Thu, 25 Aug 2011 05:30:22 -0700 (PDT) Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2011 05:29:54 -0700 From: Steve Holmes To: orca-list@gnome.org Message-ID: <20110825122954.GA13832@linlap.wavecable.com> Mail-Followup-To: orca-list@gnome.org References: <20110812051338.GA9257@linlap.wavecable.com> <4E450CFC.5080704@gmail.com> <4E54E665.40607@ymail.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: <4E54E665.40607@ymail.com> User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15) Subject: Re: [orca-list] Import Files in Calc X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2011 12:30:36 -0000 Thanks; I'l have to try that approach.

After using Debian and Vinux for a time, I've reinstalled Arch. I've installed gnome and related software, but haven't yet tried to run the GUI. I know I can retrieve the information on using Orca without Pulseaudio getting in the way. If it's workable, though, I'd like to use Pulseaudio instead of kicking it out of the way. Has anybody done this decently with Arch yet? If so, are there any instructions available? Thanks!

At the moment, once I have run it, if I Alt-tab to its window, I can read its name followed by "inaccessible" which is the french for "not accessible". I have installed libaccess-bridge-java-jni and libaccess-bridge-java packages. Is there something else I'm suposed to install ? How to figure out by examining the source code of the application whether it is supposed to be accessible or not ? Also: I noticed that gnome's terminal has become "inaccessible", too ! This is quite surprising because that was working some time ago. So if anybody has a hint on this I'd really appreciate to hear about it. Thanks much, Sébastien.

While I've been busily working on GNOME's introspection port, Victor Ramirez has created a patch which should hopefully address the significant delay you see in Orca when it is attempting to put together a line of content. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=599361 The patch looks simple enough, but it would be great to have some testing to be sure there are no unexpected side effects. Right now, I need to continue focusing on the introspection port or else Orca won't work at all in GNOME 3.2. So if you guys could give Victor's patch some heavy testing and let me know the results, we can see about getting this in Monday's releases. Thanks in advance guys! And thank you Victor for hunting this down!! --joanie From vilmar@informal.com.br Thu Aug 25 21:32:51 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 08E55750286 for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 21:32:51 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -1.9 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-1.9 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id KZWip-JF6ZKK for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 21:32:48 +0000 (UTC) Received: from relay01-alog.email.alog.com.br (relay01-alog.email.alog.com.br [200.219.210.130]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2B7167501E4 for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 21:32:39 +0000 (UTC) Received: from relay01-alog.email.alog.com.br (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by relay01-alog.email.alog.com.br (Relay01-alog) with ESMTP id EB61B200A0A4 for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 18:29:51 -0300 (BRT) Received: from [192.168.1.102] (unknown [187.15.168.79]) (Authenticated sender: vilmar@informal.com.br) by relay01-alog.email.alog.com.br (Relay01-alog) with ESMTPA id 83AC3200A09D for ; Thu, 25 Aug 2011 18:29:51 -0300 (BRT) Message-ID: <4E56BF74.9070904@informal.com.br> Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2011 18:32:36 -0300 From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Jos=E9_Vilmar_Est=E1cio_de_Souza?= Organization: Informal Informatica User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:6.0) Gecko/20110812 Thunderbird/6.0 MIME-Version: 1.0 To: orca-list@gnome.org References: <1314304110.11988.7.camel@blockhead.localdomain> In-Reply-To: <1314304110.11988.7.camel@blockhead.localdomain> X-Enigmail-Version: 1.2.1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-AV: Alog Antivirus OK Subject: Re: [orca-list] Firefox performance patch which needs testing X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list Reply-To: vilmar@informal.com.br List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2011 21:32:51 -0000 Hi. Seems that the patch fix the delay. However I am experiencing some delay when I type some text and press the tab key. After press the tab key part of the chars typed are spoken before orca announce the next field.

Hi.

Seems that the patch fix the delay. However I am experiencing some delay when I type some text and press the tab key.
After press the tab key part of the chars typed are spoken before orca
announce the next field.



Hi,

I seen this problem, but = if you don't use the patch,
when you type some text and press tab k= ey, the problem is the same.

I'm interested to hear feedback from other users about success or lack there of, in order to find out whether I have something funky going on possibly on my side. Thankfully the laptop I have it on is a spare, specificly for testing. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

My guess would be: No. The work to convert Orca away from pygtk over to pygi (gi being gobject-introspection) hasn't been committed to master yet. I'm still working on it.

I see one issue for braille related: When I type a character with edit field, the braille display two second later presenting the new character. When I press BACKSPACE key, two second later spokening Orca with the deleted character, and two second later removing the braille display the deleted character.

Hy,

I see gig performance increasing for example with Bugzilla login page, when= I write my username, press TAB key and write my password.
I see one issue for braille related:
When I type a character with edit field, the braille display two second lat= er presenting the new character.
When I press BACKSPACE key, two second later spokening Orca with the delete= d character, and two second later removing the braille display the deleted = character.
Only this page producing this issue, for example in www.google.com have only one second delay = when braille display follow up the character changes.
Anybody confirming this issues?
Need the verification test, because my working system is little old install= ation.

Attila

If you are using openjdk then it is some thing like /usr/lib/java/java-6-openjdk/jre/ext I might be slightly off the track but I am sure its there and not /usr/share/java where lot of jar files are found. This is a confusing pitfall. happy hacking. Krishnakant.

So the short version of the story is that master has just gone all kinds of unstable -- plus has new dependencies -- due to the introspection work, Gtk+ deprecations, etc. There are a number of known Orca bugs which have resulted and which I'm still working on. There are also bugs you'll see in Orca which are actually Gtk+ or pygobject or who knows what else. I promise to write up all of this for you later tonight or tomorrow after some more work and the release. In the meantime, stay away from master -- at least until you know what you are getting into. Sorry and thanks guys! The good news is that with lots of testing and debugging and bug reporting, we should have a great Orca release for GNOME 3.2!

Regarding the 3.1.90 release, there have been a number of questions both public and private, along with a number of things I would like to tell you. Rather than send one uber-mail, I'm going to break these up so that different people can read the message(s) which apply to their needs. * The Gtk+ deprecation work (i.e. using GtkGrid instead of GtkTable, GtkHBox, GtkVBox, and GtkBox is all about making Orca's GUI components (e.g. Orca's Preferences dialog) compliant with GNOME's expectations. It has nothing whatsoever to do with how Orca presents those objects when it encounters them (i.e. Orca will still work as expected with "old" Gtk+ apps. * The reason we went from a .5 version to a .90 version is because that is what GNOME did and does. Often there's a .6 before the .90, but this time the release team chose not to do that. And no, I do not know why GNOME doesn't have a .7 or a .8 but does have a .91 and .92. But that is neither here nor there: The Orca team does its best to follow GNOME rules and conventions, whatever those rules and conventions happen to be. * Information on when any given version of the officially-shipping Orca (i.e.*not* the orca-xdesktop branch) will be released can be found on the GNOME schedule for that release. The current schedule is located at https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointOne#Schedule. * Regarding releases for the orca-xdesktop branch: The reason I did not do the parallel orca-xdesktop release the other day was in part due to sheer exhaustion resulting from having to pull multiple "all-nighters" to get the introspection and GUI work "good enough to merge" in time for the 3.1.90 official release. If I had failed to get the introspection work done in time, Orca would no longer function in GNOME due to changes made in pygobject. Because the orca-xdesktop version is not official GNOME, I can release it whenever I feel like and do not have any obligation to adhere to the aforementioned schedule. As a result, my plans are to continue to commit features and fixes which apply to that version. If you pull that branch you'll find that fixes which are not specific to GNOME 3 are still going in. I'll probably do another release of that branch with the .91 release of the official branch. * As for the future of the orca-xdesktop branch and the gui-changes and so forth: Once I get fully caught up on the bugs and other issues in the official branch (i.e. the introspection fallout), I need to bring the xdesktop version back into sync with the official version. For instance, the official version now has a 'voices' page to make the 'speech' page of the preferences dialog less insanely full of options. However, the orca xdesktop version cannot depend on Gtk+ 3, use GtkGrid, etc., etc. So my choices seem to be: Re-do the GUI again, but using Gtk+ 2 or resume work on making Orca compatible with all toolkits (i.e. Gtk+ 2, Gtk+ 3, Qt, and ). Doing the latter is what I'm leaning towards. From a technical point of view, I had started that work in collaboration with Ale so we're already on our way to having it completed. From a practical point of view, I need to get us back to having one stable branch and on unstable branch. Having multiple branches is way too much work for everyone: For me of course. But also for the translators and anyone wanting to contribute fixes and features. Plus, I would really (really, really, really) like to see Orca become the screen reader of KDE and XFCE and any other graphical desktop environment for *nix. And that, of course, means toolkit independence must be implemented. So... I think that's everything I needed to say on the "general direction" front. I still need to write up a list of notes for distros and a list of bugs. That should be coming before too long, so stay tuned! Thanks guys! Take care. --joanie From joanmarie.diggs@gmail.com Wed Aug 31 10:37:38 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 709307502A1 for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:37:38 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.6 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.6 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id 2-EANO8ITs9S for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:37:35 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-vx0-f182.google.com (mail-vx0-f182.google.com [209.85.220.182]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 0BB9E750295 for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:37:24 +0000 (UTC) Received: by vxh11 with SMTP id 11so563154vxh.27 for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:37:23 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=sender:subject:from:to:date:content-type:x-mailer :content-transfer-encoding:message-id:mime-version; bh=0O5iAYPrV/4MwtFF7OyZAP4Xs8FkO4CIbSSk1qaa0EA=; b=i3pDJ7exsoIFExJI1wcuTUhzidFKWmEnVwpcfMkyFnTOEtvIfC16WdGlI5FO/SBSGN ZWCv9SX1awFPinOpuZYfvTXl/gUIIQpKD9Fq8XTFLCcqjWuMfgdWpKEoezO8zEhPf/Ba LNkRIzJSN7wEpVzLkz8ZsUlUsAdIecv+Xlzds= Received: by 10.220.87.20 with SMTP id u20mr60821vcl.35.1314787042928; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:37:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [192.168.35.106] (c-98-217-239-60.hsd1.nh.comcast.net [98.217.239.60]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id r11sm3047350vcv.33.2011.08.31.03.37.21 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Wed, 31 Aug 2011 03:37:22 -0700 (PDT) Sender: Joanmarie Diggs From: Joanmarie Diggs To: orca-list@gnome.org Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 06:37:21 -0400 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" X-Mailer: Evolution 3.0.2 (3.0.2-3.fc15) Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <1314787042.2073.74.camel@blockhead.localdomain> Mime-Version: 1.0 Subject: [orca-list] A bit more about the 3.1.90 release: Dependencies for Orca X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 10:37:38 -0000 Hey all. Here is part 2 of the series of 3.1.90 notes. In response to Steve's question: > When we get closer to a more stable master, could you provide a > current list of known dependencies? I ask this on behalf of us package > maintainers . While we're not yet "closer to a more stable master," I wanted to answer this now. Up until recently, it was fairly simple to keep Orca largely independent of hard, version-specific dependencies. For instance, Orca from master should have worked with either AT-SPI1 or AT-SPI2. And as long as you had a version of python and a version of Gtk+ 2 from the past few years, Orca should have been fine. Of course, having the latest stable versions is better due to features and bug fixes, but Orca would still largely do the right thing either way. Those days are, for the moment, over. As I've stated elsewhere, recent changes outside of Orca turned Orca's introspection conversion from "something we really should finish and commit" to "something we must finish and commit or else Orca will no longer function as soon as GNOME 3.1.90 is released." Converting to introspection has, as a side effect, an associated need to use Gtk+ 3. Furthermore, the act of implementing the introspection work resulted in the discovery of bugs outside of Orca whose fixes are not just "nice to have," but "needed so that using Orca doesn't crash or hang." In order to ensure that we have the environment we think we have in order to maximize the likelihood of things working as expected, I have started adding dependencies as build requirements in configure.ac. At the moment these new dependencies are: * at-spi2 version 2.1.90 or later * Gtk+ 3 version 3.1.14 or later * pygobject version 2.90.3 or later (see note at the end) My plan is to keep bumping those minimum versions until they become stable (defined here from the practical, "works as expected" standpoint and not simply "part of the stable GNOME release."). Once they do become stable, I shall only bump as needed. In other words, I fully expect to one day be back to the situation we were in namely: As long as you are within a year or two of the current releases, Orca from master should work. But that day is not today, and it's likely not going to be tomorrow either. In addition, as you likely have already concluded, should I discover there is another dependency out there that Orca must have in order to function, it will get added to configure.ac. So Steve, that's the long answer to your question. The short answer, as you no doubt have figured out by now is: Try to build Orca and see. But I will try to get into the habit of including the minimum versions in the release notes when those versions change. Sorry for failing to do that the other day! Lastly, it was brought to my attention by the release team this morning that the pygobject maintainer did not do a 2.90.3 release yet. I'm afraid pygobject 2.90.3 is required due to fixes which are necessary in order for Orca to work. As a result, the release team and I are going to follow up with that module maintainer to request he roll a tarball. In the meantime, pygobject from master claims to be 2.90.3 and is what I have been using. Thanks guys! Take care. --joanie From joanmarie.diggs@gmail.com Wed Aug 31 11:43:37 2011 Return-Path: X-Original-To: orca-list@gnome.org Delivered-To: orca-list@gnome.org Received: from localhost (localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7C2BD750374 for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:43:37 +0000 (UTC) X-Virus-Scanned: by amavisd-new at gnome.org X-Spam-Flag: NO X-Spam-Score: -2.6 X-Spam-Level: X-Spam-Status: No, score=-2.6 tagged_above=-999 required=2 tests=[BAYES_00=-1.9, DKIM_SIGNED=0.1, DKIM_VALID=-0.1, FREEMAIL_FROM=0.001, RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW=-0.7, SPF_PASS=-0.001] autolearn=ham Received: from menubar.gnome.org ([127.0.0.1]) by localhost (menubar.gnome.org [127.0.0.1]) (amavisd-new, port 10024) with ESMTP id yb3WGXQar72A for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:43:34 +0000 (UTC) Received: from mail-vx0-f182.google.com (mail-vx0-f182.google.com [209.85.220.182]) by menubar.gnome.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A3C6A750367 for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:43:26 +0000 (UTC) Received: by vxh11 with SMTP id 11so624062vxh.27 for ; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 04:43:24 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=gamma; h=sender:subject:from:to:date:in-reply-to:references:content-type :x-mailer:content-transfer-encoding:message-id:mime-version; bh=zIq9rb5im5FqqRBIWj8ZNEHixNLBlhlnxTgzhhEwn2E=; b=d1nJ3m6aw+4Qog7fOcUGAJtNP7XrfqXfHBQL54ssnDTF+kPkejSXaAfRJSp6riOE/j 9r3IbQ9dk67fC3QS1oI/vDtRRCauVBafxANyBtyotaCgpmm3qWkP3KE7rdvgA5r6PMFJ AoFp0KV5dq6ldED2sAWTCN4L2xeW0QPM1PThE= Received: by 10.52.24.225 with SMTP id x1mr228625vdf.522.1314791004741; Wed, 31 Aug 2011 04:43:24 -0700 (PDT) Received: from [192.168.35.106] (c-98-217-239-60.hsd1.nh.comcast.net [98.217.239.60]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id em6sm4244439vdb.46.2011.08.31.04.43.23 (version=SSLv3 cipher=OTHER); Wed, 31 Aug 2011 04:43:23 -0700 (PDT) Sender: Joanmarie Diggs From: Joanmarie Diggs To: orca-list@gnome.org Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 07:43:22 -0400 In-Reply-To: <1314787042.2073.74.camel@blockhead.localdomain> References: <1314787042.2073.74.camel@blockhead.localdomain> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" X-Mailer: Evolution 3.0.2 (3.0.2-3.fc15) Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Message-ID: <1314791003.2073.79.camel@blockhead.localdomain> Mime-Version: 1.0 Subject: Re: [orca-list] A bit more about the 3.1.90 release: Dependencies for Orca X-BeenThere: orca-list@gnome.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Orca screen reader developers and users List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 11:43:37 -0000 BTW, one additional note for distros and package maintainers: If your distro is shipping pygobject 2.90.2 or later (and possibly 2.90.1 or later), there's an excellent chance that Orca without introspection will likely and regularly hang the desktop. Again, as best as I can tell, this is an all-or-nothing situation.... --joanie
