Re: [orca-list] Skype with Ubuntu?

I think there is a checkbox that has to be checked for the setting to be remembered.
Also for the autologin.  If autologin isn't checked it will prompt for password when Skype opens.  Orca can't read the prompt though, it just says something like Skype inaccessable.

I don't remember where the skype4pidgin website is, but a search on google will get it in the first or second result.  I haven't been able to use Skype on my new laptop because I can't get my internal or external mic working.
