Re: [orca-list] skype accessibility



Hello,
Heh this is a little simple hack but yeah it works.
I have wondered for a while how to make the most of it.
This was my first experience with skype on linux and I must say I am surprised. Arrowing within edit fields does not work well, there is no way on how to read incoming chat messages by letters and words however all other skype features are working fine including managing contacts, calling, receiving calls, reading notifications etc.

Greetings

Peter

Hi.
I am using arch and what I did to got some accessibility in skype was put a 32-bit copy of libqspiaccessiblebridge.so
 in /usr/lib32/qt/plugins/accessiblebridge.

I grabbed the copy from a 32-bit qt-at-spi package but I can send a copy in pvt if necessary.
Thanks.

Nor cn I get skype to talk on 64bit arch.
If you had 32bit it'd be fine, but some kind of 32bit compile of qt-at-spi is needed I hear, but no one has told me
exactly what to do, and nothing I've tried has worked.
On other distros this is pretty easy to resolve just installing a 32bit qt-at-spi package, and you of course do need some
32bit libs for skype to run at all.
I'm out of luck anyway for the moment as I'm not running pulse audio, and rally would prefer not to. Latest skype has no
directt alsa support as did all before it.
Too bad as latest skype is very accessible with only minor issues. Even 4.2 packages were usable for most features with
speech.

Hi,

I'm on a 64-bit Archlinux system with Orca Master and QT-AT-SPI
installed. I'm trying to access Skype, but there is no feedback
whatsoever.

I seem to recall that it is at least partially accessible now, but I
don't know how to get it to work. Has anybody gotten Skype usable on
Archlinux? I think part of the problem is with mixing library
architectures.

Regards,
Hussain
