Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
In gnome-keybindings-properties, in the Accessibility section, there are
three entries by default: toggle magnifier, toggle screen reader, and
toggle on-screen keyboard. None of these work, whether or not Assistive
Technologies is currently running and whether or not orca is currently
running.
WHAT I EXPECT TO HAPPEN: I should be able to configure a shortcut to any
of these actions, such as Ctrl-Alt-A to the Toggle magnifier action.
Then, pressing, Ctrl-Alt-A will start the magnifier.
WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS: I am able to modify the entry in the gnome-
keybindings-properties window, but pressing the designated key does not
perform any action. That is, the magnifier does not open. Changing the
hotkeys for other actions works okay.
WHY THIS IS BAD: This is confusing and misleading behavior, and can be
especially damaging for people who need the accessibility features.
Ideally, the keybindings should be fixed, but otherwise they should be
removed from the dialog.
This is true under up-to-date Lucid 10.04 tested on several systems.
