Hallo beste forum-vrienden, het is zover, de V. 1.2 van Vibuntu is uit! Ditmaal is ECHT een mijlpaal bereikt: - EN braille EN Orca met stem worden gestart, dus dat betekend autodetectie van de leesregel, dan Gnome en Orca gestart, and he talks!!! - ook is het probleem van de admin permissie onder Orca opgelost, dus je krijgt admin rechten en kan je systeem beter beheren vanuit Orca.
Alle info in Anthony Sales' releasenota: ----- Forwarded message from Anthony Sales <tony.sa...@rncb.ac.uk> ----- From: Anthony Sales Date: Fri, 12 Dec 2008 16:34:56 -0000 Vibuntu 1.2 Released! I am happy to formally announce the realease of Vibuntu 1.2 and I feel that this is a significant release because I have now resolved the problem of Orca beong unable to read admin apps launched from the menus and activated USB Braille Display autoprobing. This was achieved by simply changing the entries in the admin menu so they launched as an 'application in terminal' using the sudo or gksu command when necessary. This simply opens a terminal, asks for the admin password if required and then runs the gui application. When you close the application the terminal closes automatically and focus is returned to the Orca window. The only exception to this is remastersys gui which for some reason does not retain focus, you have to alt+tab to move from the terminal to the remastersys gui. (This is a problem with remastersys rather than Orca/Gnome etc). Sighted or partially sighted users are advised to open the admin apps using the desktop icons which will run the admin applications in the standard way. (Thanks to Luke Davies for this suggestion) Of course this solution oly works on top of the changes recommended on the Orca SysAdmin page. The download URL's are: http://www.rnc.ac.uk/mct/linux/vibuntu/Vibuntu-1.2.zip <http://www.rnc.ac.uk/mct/linux/vibuntu/Vibuntu-1.2.zip> (This is a zip file containing iso and md5sum) http://vibuntu.blinuxman.net/ <http://vibuntu.blinuxman.net/> and http://blinuxman.net/vibuntu/ <http://blinuxman.net/vibuntu/> (These are standard iso downloads) The homepage is here: http://blinuxman.net/projects/vibuntu.php <http://blinuxman.net/projects/vibuntu.php> I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to this project by offering feedback, suggestions and criticisms. I would especially like to thank Osvaldo La Rosa who has enthusiastically taken on the responsibility for hosting a Vibuntu webpage and mirroring the images. This will in all probability be the last release of the year as I now want to take stock of what has been done, make available a list of features/changes, instructions on how to create Vibuntu from scratch and a wishlist of possible new features divided into easy, difficult and impossible! As ever I would appreciate continued feedback and suggestions. I will set up a thread on the Ubuntu Assistive Technology and Accessibility section for people to post their suggestions! drbongo ----- End forwarded message -----
