Re: [orca-list] State of Antergos accessibility

[Jace Kattalakis <khalfang1366 gmail com>]

Devin, for the Ubuntu side, Look up Accessible Coconut by cocofrix. It's 
more up to date and has (IIRC) a working login screen with Orca. That 
being said I just use auto login so not 110% sure on that. However AC is 
very much alive and well, it's 16.04.27 is the latest version they put 
out a month ago going by Sourceforge.


I managed, somehow, by a metric ton of quite probably breaking stuff on 
an 18.04 Ubuntu install....to get Orca working with Lightdm. Though 
naturally, can't reproduce it on a new install. Figures...
