Re: [orca-list] talking gdm with orca in fedora

["Albert Sten-Clanton" <albert e sten_clanton verizon net>]

Robert Cole may have pointed this out by the time my message shows up, but
in case not, there's now a speakup-modified version of Fedora 17 available
at

<www.speakupmodified.org>

That you should be able to install without sighted help, at least if you
have a hardware synthesizer.  My present plan is to use it on a new Linux
machine, assuming the guy at the computer store and I can ever get a deal
done.  (He's quite busy.) I don't know if this will help many people right
away, but I thought it worth mentioning.

Hi.

Your post arrived just fine.  The reason you are probably not getting many
responses is that there are very few of us who use Fedora due to largely
inaccessible install process.  That may soon change, however, as Joannie has
been working on Anaconda's accessibility.  Hang in there.  Someone is bound
to respond sooner or later.  

Best,
Alex M

Hello list,
I'm not sure if my message was received, but I'll repost. I'm wanting to
make gdm talk on fedora this way I can tell when to enter my password when
using fedora.
I've found some messages relating to fedora 11, but I'm not sure if the same
still applies. I've tried doing
gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility
to see what my system would report for the current user and i get the
following.

Client failed to connect to the dbus daemon.
The remote application did not send a reply, the message buss security
policy blocked the reply, the reply timed out/expired, or the network
connection timed out.
Failure listing entries in /desktop/gnome/interface , no dbus daemonrunning.

I'd think this is an selinux-policy issue, but I'm not sure.
Either that or values with gconftool-2 do not require dbus. I believe though
its the latter of what I've mentioned.
I'm running Fedora 17.

cheers to all,
Alonzo
