Hi Nolan,
Karmic accessibility seems to be working ok, with some other hickups.
WARNING, if you dont have volume buttons on your keyboard/laptop
then its probably not worth your time.

Greetings,

Well, yes, there are work-arounds for the volume. However, though I
realise it's not Ubuntu's fault, having to restart speech dispatcher

Hi, Luke.
Thanks for working on accessibility. I feel really rotten about
complaining about the bugs without putting in effort into debugging.
However, my boss is all over me at the moment to get another project

Hi Luke and all.
Thanks for the work on Ubuntu accessibility. I know that it isn't easy,
and it's something I'd like to chip in and help with. I'm a bit short on

Does Speech Dispatcher crash in Karmic when a synthesizer other than
Espeak is used? I run Jaunty and find that Espeak will often stop
talking when I use Speech Dispatcher. With Flite, these crashes are
rare. If I use Gnome-speech with Espeak, Espeak will often interrupt
itself but not
