Re: [orca-list] Starting at-spi2-registryd early enough

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

As an example of what doesn't read:
* Desktop icons (eg. "Computer", "Mike's home", "Waste Basket", etc).
* Gnome's menu's: "Applications", "Places" and "System".
* The gnome run dialog when I press alt_f2.

When I launch applications they seem to be fine for accessibility, its 
just more the core desktop features which don't work.
