Re: [orca-list] debian wheezy: change of live region settings don'twork

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
I am not using debian however this feature is definetelly working here.
What is different is naming of the keys I have to use to toggle live 
regions and its politeness.
I am using orca 3.6.3 on arch linux and I have set my default keyboard 
layout in gnome to slovak.
For setting politeness I can use equals key located to the right of the 
0 key in the upper row of keys. I can use shift+equals sign to toggle 
the reporting of live regions.
I dont know how you might have configured your keyboard layout but try 
to forget names of the keys and try to find a working key for you based 
off of my description.

Greetings

Peter
