Re: [orca-list] Problems with flat review and being able to read the screen content

[Thomas Ward <thomasward1978 gmail com>]

Hi,

You will definitely have to upgrade Orca, but depending on what Linux
distribution you have, what version of Gnome you are running, etc it
isn't as simple as just downloading a file. For the latest stable
orca, version 3.4.2, you are going to need to berunning a Linux
distribution with at least Gnome 3.4.x, Python 2.7.3, relative up to
date atspi2 packages, etc. If you are still running Gnome 2.32 or
earlier you are out of luck I'm afraid.

Cheers!
