Re: Bug#706548: gnome-orca: No speech in login screen
Hi, When i use Strg + Alt + Tab in the login screen there is only "panel frame" on the braille display. When i press tab or arrow keys there nothing happens. Looks like there is no chance to enable speech using only the braille device. - Jann 2013/5/1, Jann Schneider : > I'm forwarding this mail because i think i have just missed to press > 'answer to all'.. > > -- Forwarded message -- > From: Jann Schneider > Date: Wed, 1 May 2013 22:31:21 +0200 > Subject: Re: Bug#706548: gnome-orca: No speech in login screen > To: Dave Hunt > > Hi, > > When i tab around at the login screen i can only find the buttons for > login / cancel, a combo to choose system default / gnome / gnome > classic and an entry for my user.

usb plug and play does not work with versions of installer which include firmware
This is one I thought needed to be filed away for work in future versions of the installer. I do not know how to file one of those fancy bug reports that include all that information like apt prefers and all that, but I did two installs on different machines and had the same problem. What happens is this. On some machines, including the one I have here trying to get to work for a friend, the networking hardware requires some non-free firmware to work. Well, I get that version of the network installer and do the work. The install goes flawlessly, but, when the machine is rebooted, the usb detection does not work. If I put in a usb device before starting the machine, the install of the usb device is detected on machine startup and it works as expected. If I put in a flash drive or external hard drive, for instance, after the system is running, there is no detection, and no access to the usb flash drive or hard disk even though it is being powered. This is only in the version of the installer that has the non-free firmware components in it. The stock one I installed on here works like a dream. The only other solution I can see to this is to download the dvd installation set and attempt to install with those. Hope this helps. -- Doug Smith: Special Agent S.W.A.T Spiritual Warfare and Advanced Technology Forever serving our LORD and SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-accessibility-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Nobody is removing it. Please don't assume that somebody is against you, it's simply untrue. That being said it is enabled only for official releases, to avoid bothering the ears of people who e.g. debug the installer all day long.

Re: webBrowser for debian
Hello Eric Erik wrote: Block quote Hello, Iceweasel works just fine under Debian. What version are you using? As for your question about Chrome, it can be made accessible. However, this requires installing the non-open-source version, called Chrome. This however is not a perfect solution, as their are still a11y issues. The a11y extention is installed with the Chrome Web Application Store, which is not accessible before you install the extention. So, you will need some sighted assistance to get the extention up and running. However, on subsequent installs of Chrome will not require this. This is because your preferences are maintained in your Google account profile. So, once you sync your browser to other machines, the a11y bits will be downloaded to that machine and installed. --Erik Block quote end. the version of iceweasel is 18.1 it seems. i'm a linux user, coming from windows.. maybe i haven't got used to browsing with linux? for example, when i want to write in google search, the voice (echo keys) lags. or when i try to aero up/down within a website, i feel... an unresponsiveness.. it's hard to explain. Another problem that i have is that the sentenses are cut in some pages for some reason. for example, i have to aero down sevral times to read a complete sentense. (two or three words in a line). don't think i could get google chrome working then. have no sighted assisstence for now. Hi Sebastian Sebastian wrote: block Quote In later versions of Firefox (AKA Iceweasel), the support is far better. Have a look at mozilla.com and download a targz-file for Linux. Unpack it to your home and use this one instead of Iceweasel. HTH Sebastian Block quote end. Do you mean that i should install the firefox itself? is it possible? i thought iceweasel and firefox are the same. is the installation hard? i have little experience with commandline.

Re: Debian Installer 7.0 RC2 release
Exactly, it's a flash drive. No beep, not easy to know when it's doing anything... Why does the beep come and go with different revisions? Tell someone to stop removing it! David On 01-05-2013 02:58 PM, Jason White wrote: Jude DaShiell wrote:ll someone to stop removing it! David There was no beep when I installed rc2 either, just wait until the disk stops spinning and hit s and enter and you should be good to go. The beep comes and goes through versioning changes. This doesn't help, unfortunately, if the USB drive referred to turns out to be a flash memory device, which obviously doesn't spin. If the UEFI or BIOS in the machine doesn't beep, it's even worse. There is a real need for accessibility at the firmware level. Most systems lack support for IPMI or serial console. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-accessibility-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Re: Debian Installer 7.0 RC2 release
All I did was to use wodim to burn the iso. When I got a usable dvd in the drive everything worked the first time. You may have run into a bunch of Chinese Specials in terms of DVD's, these look like they'll work but bomb out and turn into coasters.

There was no beep when I installed rc2 either, just wait until the disk stops spinning and hit s and enter and you should be good to go. The beep comes and goes through versioning changes.
