 Which pointer do we want to use for the high contrast theme? Either the

 because it stands out from the desktop background. On the other hand, it may 
 be harder to see in windows.

 As well as that, do we want the desktop background for the high contrast 
 theme? It is not hard to get rid of that also.
   
I would assume the biggest white pointer by default, as is it just a 
larger version of the default normal pointer.  I can't imagine that the 
red pointer would be expected, and many people who need high contrast 
themes don't like color.

no sound when selecting screen reader.

2006-04-12 Thread Al Puzzuoli



Hello Henrik,

i'm not sure whether this has already been logged, 
or where issues like this should best be reported.

I am using today's build of the live cd, and on two 
separate machines, if I select to use the screen reader, I get no sound at all, 
no speech and no system sounds. I'm not sure whether system events are 
just not playing, or whether drivers for the audio hardware aren't being 
properly loadded.

Network configuration from the console

2006-04-12 Thread Mike Pedersen



Hi all, this might 
be somewhat off-topic but perhaps not. As I mentioned the other day with 
the default user configuration it is not possible to read many of the admin 
tools with a screen reader such as orca. I am wondering: Is it 
possible to configure a wireless network from the console? I'm connecting 
to a WEP encrypted WiFi network that is already connected via wired LAN 
connection.
thanks for any 
ideas.
Mike

Indeed it is possible to configure the network from the console. The 
file you want to modify is /etc/network/interfaces. The interfaces man 
pages should give you the syntax for the file. To configure wireless 
options, you will want to look at the wireless man page to get the 
appropriate lines for /etc/network/interfaces.

Hope this helps.

That is the behavior I set up. Drivers are loaded, but as speech usually 
interfears with GNOME sounds, I turned them off for that profile. There 
is also no speech as the packages needed are not yet on the live CD. 
They should be in a couple of days.
