Re: [orca-list] is Unity 3d production ready for Orca

[Krishnakant Mane <krmane gmail com>]

Hello, by the way, another major point I wished to know.
Given now that Unity 3d has problems mentioned by more than one person
on this thread, I see no option but to go for gnome.
In Unity, a usb thumb drive opens automatically when attached.
Is there a way to get this same effect in gnome 3.10?
Secondly, I hear that one can get the super + number key working like
Unity, I had raised this issue before on this thread, so is any one
aware of this?
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.
