hi all
I've been wondering this for a while and decided to write in. I use
orca with gdm to manage users and log in. I've noticed that when
turning orca on on the log on screen for the first time, orca
essentially generates a blank default profile and copies into the user
directory, just like it does for anyone else, in this case
/var/lib/gdm. However, I'm not sure if it's a bug in gdm or something
else, you're unable to access orca's preferences from the login
screen. Trying just doesn't open the preferences dialog. If this were
possible I could just alter the settings and they would be saved. This
works in lightdm, the other accessible log in manager. This got me
thinking. Could there be at some point, a "save settings to log in
screen" or similar option, maybe in the general tab, that would save
these settings to the currently active dm? I don't know if there's a
login manager agnostic way of accomplishing this or whether we would
have to include code in orca to handle each individual login manager,
since they usually save their settings to a local user named after the
login manager, but I'm not sure if all of them do this or just some.
Just something to think about and it's not urgent.
Thanks
