Re: [orca-list] Audio guide to installing the firefox web browser and the Orca screen reader.

["Darragh" <lists digitaldarragh com>]

Hello Will,

Just letting you know that I've recorded the first two guides.

1.  installing Ubuntu with the assistance of Orca.
I've re-done this as I'm now a bit more experienced with the Ubuntu distro
than I was previously.
2.  Installing the latest version of Orca and the latest trunk of Firefox.

I'll work on the rest soon.


I'll also uplode these tomorrow at some stage.  I have to redo some of the
firefox part as I've encountered a bug in it that's causing me some problems
typing addresses. 

If you have any questions, as always, don't hesitate to ask.

Hi Darragh:

Neat stuff and thanks for your efforts.  This stuff is just as important
as software development and will go a long way to helping people.

The Orca page on Firefox page is here:

  http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Firefox

Would you mind if we created a link to your audio file from the Orca
page on Firefox?

We keep a set of pages on the Orca WIKI that are meant to hold
information on how to use various applications:

  http://live.gnome.org/Orca/AccessibleApps

I think some of the top priorities are getting people to the point where
they can reach out to the Orca community for more help.  So, Firefox for
web access to http://live.gnome.org/Orca and
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/orca-list/, GAIM for #orca messaging on
irc.gnome.org, Evolution and/or Thunderbird for e-mail communication
with orca-list gnome org   Once that communication support structure is
in place, we can then tackle other applications.

You will become a hero and an institution.

Thanks for your work!

Will
