Hello,

As I understand, orca 2.91 is now available in Debian Unstable.
Is there a way I can install it on Squeeze without messing up the

or can I just fetch the package manualy from a sid mirror and install

After installing Gnome 2.24 (from the experimental repository) and Orca
2.24.2-1 from the same source, I notice the following oddity.
Note the only reason why Gnome 2.24 is in experimental, as far as I know, is
that Unstable is in freeze due to the forthcoming release of Lenny.
Whenever I am
Hi Jason:
Whenever I am outside a Gnome menu and I try to use the up-arrow key, there is
a pause, and then I am placed in a gnome-screenshot dialogue.
Very strange. All I can think is that you might be pressing the Print
Screen key. Is it possible this is near the up arrow button and you
to know how well Orca
performs on this hardware, especially under Debian.
Well, with Ubuntu 8.04, there's no ethernet or wireless out of the box.
In Ubuntu 8.10 ethernet works fine, but wireless doesn't. However, for
Ubuntu 8.04 there's a special eee pc kernel which supports all the hardware
cd and get orca talking, get a
terminal and do your thing from there.
I am struggling to get a kernel with speakup that will work on the Eee_pc.

wouldn't be surprised if Orca won't work

Yes this still works, however when examining the orca preferences, the checkbox
for orca to start at login is not checked, due to the desktop file not being

for finding packages.
While it is possible for both the Debian and svn versions of Orca to be
