Re: [orca-list] Anybody tried Fedora 29 yet?

[Nolan Darilek <nolan thewordnerd info>]

Are there still accessibility issues when using the Wayland session with 
Orca?


I ask because I'm using Fedora Silverblue, and under F28/F29 I can't get 
the Xorg session working. Could be specific to Silverblue, but if there 
are no longer accessibility issues with Wayland and Orca then maybe I 
won't waste any time debugging the Xorg session and leave it to someone 
more capable.
