Re: [orca-list] mouse over not working

["Bill Dengler(arch Gnu/Linux)" <billkd2008 gmail com>]

Three things :
1 - your Ubuntu is really old! They've made lots of enhancements in 
Orca/Gnome 3.8 and the new Unity. Run the following commands :

sudo -i
do-release-upgrade
do-release-upgrade
do-release-upgrade
exit

2 - enable "speak tooltips"
3 - why are you on Unity 2D? Do you have an older box?
