Re: [orca-list] Speech-Dispatcher 0.8-3 available in Fedora testing

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

The closest I have been able to find to a gsettings command that might work
in Fedora is this:

https://wiki.debian.org/accessibility

If you look in the GDM heading, there is a gsettings command which I did
make work in my debian installation.  I think porting it to Fedora is merely
a question of determining the user analogous to debian-gdm.  I did find that
there was a gdm user but when I ran the command it wanted that user's
password and I don't have it nor do I know how to acquire it.  

There's my contribution.  Maybe someone will pick it up and run with it
until they crack it.

I expect there's a gsettings command, or something like it, but I don't know
the command. If anyone knows, please advise and I'll post the info via
SpeakupModified.org which is due for some updating.

I used some instructions previously posted here involving Ctrl-Alt-TAB
followed by some amount of tab and then some amount of down arrow. Sorry I
don't have that info at hand. Perhaps someone can repost that? It's also
something that should go on the web page.

Fortunately, it's a one time setting thing.
