Hi, So if I sum up what I understand (tell me if I do a mistake): to start orca while the desktop runs, we have 2 solutions. One, with Universal Access, but it doesn't work (in my opinion, it's a bug), seems it's from a gnome's choice. The other is to add to the desktop startup. How can I do this? I don't find how I can do this in Preferences menu of gnome.
If Gnome doesn't want the 1st feature, why do they let it? Again, I'm about thinking it's a gnome3's bug problematic for common blind users. Really, am I integrist? But I go on trying maintaining Wheezy as accessible as squeeze for any blind user. I wait for your answers with interest.
