Re: [orca-list] gnome-panel and notification area madness

Hi Rich:

I'm not sure of the best way.  If you're on Ubuntu Intrepid already, I 
*think* an apt-get update should do it.  I've been focusing on 
OpenSolaris lately (see 
http://opensolaris.org/os/project/indiana/status/accessibility/), so my 
Ubuntu chops are kind of falling to the wayside.
