I recall yelp getting fixed a while back so it would work with Orca.
In fact, I recall it working too. But now I tried to view a couple
help pages with yelp and no go. Whag happened here??? When I pull up
the help/about dialog for yelp, the title says "Help 2.22.1 for the
GNOME desktop". I'm using Debian/Lenny with latest updates and Orca
2.25.5Pre svnversion=4413.
The only thing I can do with the help page is read with flat review
keys. But I can't do anything from the keyboard. The arrow keys do
nothing and page and page down don't scroll the page either. In fact,
I tried clicking the tontents page with the flat review key (/) and
that seemed to have no effect either. I really wonder what broke
here?? Also, th make matters worse, most of the time when I quit this
help viewer, I lose Orca and have to jump to a text console, kill the
Orca process and then come back to my gnome window and restart Orca.
This is really a mess now. Did Debian downgrade yelp or something?
Have there been changes to yelp to break accessibility? Oh, I got
into the preferences for yelp and the "Use Caret browsing" checkbox is
checked.
I wonder if I need to put those old scripts back in which substitute
firefox to read the help pages.
Any possible ideas here?
