Isn't this the release with just Unity and not Unity 2d because it's
been discontinued? here's a suggestion:
install espeakup and start up the speakup synth before logging into
gnome. Then, in a console session use Speakup to try and get Gnome
shell to see how that is doing. If what I've read is to be believed,
12.10 won't be as accessible as 12.04 because it won't have Unity 2d.
Therefore, the only way to really test out the distribution is to get a
desktop system that is accessible.

Hi,
I wanted to have a look, running this from a flash drive. I got orca
to start on hearing the login drums, set some preferences, and tried
to move to the 'try ubuntu' button on the first installer screen.
Once I hit the button, speech went silent, and stayed that way, with
attempts to manually start orca resulting in no speech. I started a
terminal, and started orca with the '-t' option, and went through that
setup. Still no talking from orca. I checked with 'spd-say hello', and
got espeak, thus confirming that speech dispatcher, espeak, and the
sound system were working. What have others found with this release?
