I never used Ubuntu so can't make an accurate comparison. But I've
been using Debian Testing (Lenny) for the past couple months now and I
haven't really had any problems to speak of. It is plenty stable. It
uses Gnome 2.24.1 but I use SVN orca because I want to keep up with
the latest accessibility stuff. In several ways, I would say that
Gnome / Orca under Debian has proven to be more stable and more robust
under Debian than with Slackware and Dropline. No complaints here; I
would go for it, if I were you. You don't have to wory about that
pulse audio garbage either.

hi steve that's interesting to know specially in debian.
I wanted to know how stable is debian lenny with reference to orca?
I am planning to shift to lenny from ubuntu.
Is it worth going for?
Is lenny stable with gnome 2.23 or 24?
Is it ready for prime time use so that I completely replace ubuntu?
happy hacking.

I just discovered something with my Debian Lenny setup with recent svn
pull of Orca. I just went to lock the screen from the main start menu
and was surprised to find that it talks now. I thought that was
always silent. Well, at least, I never tried it with Debian but it
was always silent with Slackware/Dropline. Does this mean that the
login under GDM will now also be accessible? I'm too chicken to try
it right this moment so I thought I would throw the question out there
to see if I've been some exciting news or what.
Again, the login prompt under a locked screen talks for me now. and I
would suppose the screen saver would probably also talk. if auto timed
out. Right now, I have it set throw up the screen saver and not lock
the screen but now I may go ahead and set that up now that it talks.
Thoughts?
