Re: [orca-list] Documentation for Using Gnome

Sorry, I might have not been clear.
I saw a version of Ubuntu with the gnome shell by default.
It means we don't need to do the apt-get install gnome-shell.
Such a version was also available in the past.
Happy hacking.

Ubuntu always has a Gnome version.  You just need to do sudo apt-get install
gnome or gnome-shell to put it on there.  It what I did on 13.10.  I found
the Unity 3d desktop it came with unusable with its patchy accessibility.  I
still like lightdm though.

And it seems Ubuntu will have a gnome version this time also.
I am just downloading the beta2 of trusti (14.04 gnome version).
Let's see what they have out there.
would like to know some basic commands though? such as how to access the
list of applications, how to add and remove from the favorite list (like
launcher pain in unity ) and how to access wifi and other items.
These much commands are sufficient to get to the rest.
happy hacking.

You know, you guys could try looking around on http://live.gnome.org.
I'm sure you'd find something that fits the bill.  Start on the
release notes for Gnome 3.10 and see if there's an accessibility
section.  There usually is.  Having said that, I've used 3.10 before
on a Fedora virtual machine and found it immensely accessible and
entirely usable.  I'm excited at the prospect of getting it on my home

server when I update to Ubuntu 14.04.

And the logical fallacy is that the Gnome help is inaccessible with
Orca. So there goes the primary source of documentation. Maybe Gnome
3.12 fixed this?

I think Gnome shell 3.10 seems to be pretty accessible, but I too
have the same query, since I wish to use it for my daily personal and
professional work.

Hello everyone,

Since Gnome 3, everything has changed including how to find apps and
such.  I understand that alt+F1 pulls up a payne of some sort and it
appears as though ctrl+alt+tab moves between them but I am having
trouble finding some consistency in the behavior of these paynes.
It is probably due to my lack of knowledge.  Could someone either
provide some tips on navigating the Gnome desktop or tell me where
would be a good place on the web to read....such as a keyboard
reference or something similar?

Also, I would be interested in recommendations for applications to
do various daily tasks, such as email (I'm assuming Thunderbird),
Twitter clients, IM, etc.  What is the status of Skype accessibility?
I remember it being a hastle in the past.

Thanks,
Robert
