Re: [orca-list] Unity 2D or unity 3D for Orca

[Dave Hunt <ka1cey gmail com>]

Hi,

When you have your session set to gnome-shell, does it not come up 
accessible?  It did in Ubuntu 11.10, last time I tried.  I noticed that 
orca had a hard time staying focused and switching among running apps, 
but, yah, got the sense that Unity and gnome-shell are very similar.  I 
can't say who copied whom;  lol.


Cheers,


Dave
