Re: [orca-list] Orca's speech output when switching through programs

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

I don't think so. 
Youshould update orca though. 
There have been a couple posts over the last few weeks with the instructions on adding the accessibility ppa 
to get the latest packages that orca needs 
and much newer versions of orca. This will make the biggest diofference when using firefox, but will help 
with some other things as well.
Excuse the sloppy typing. 
OK, I added the accessiblity repo to my list of Ubntu/Vinux software sources/will paste in below.
This is not needed with Vinux as vinux always has latest Orca that can be installed  on any given release.
I suggest getting Vinux5 when it comes out instead of usiing straight Ubuntu/should be very soon, maybe with 
in a couple of weeks.
This repo includes accessiblity stack and orca itself.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:accessibility-devel

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
