Hello list,
I have made a spin of Lubuntu making it accessible with the Orca screen
reader. I can give the configurations to whom it may concern to get this
up stream. Right now with the way that I have it set up there are two
problems. The first is the lxpanle is mostly inaccessible. The only part
that is accessible is the menu where the applications are such as
accessories, Internet and office. I can get to the programs within these
parts of the menu but I can't get Orca to read the network manager or
the volume control and everything else on the panel. The second thing is
pcmanfm won't read anything on the desktop with Orca. If I have a file
saved on the desktop or try to make a shortcut for home Orca doesn't see
any of these things with pcmanfm. But if I use nautilus as a filemanager
then Orca will see the things on the desktop. But as far as I can tell
these are the only two things stopping Lubuntu from being extremely
accessible. This would be great to get Lubuntu and lXDe accessible
because it is a very fast desktop and would be great for blind and low
vision people throughout the world. I know there is talks of lxde
switching to qt I'm affraid of the setback this will cause with
accessibility of LXDE. We are so close to getting it 100% accessible.
