When booting the 64-bit version of this release candidate, I found that the screen reader did not start automatically, I waited over 2 minutes. Is this by design? I could launch the screen reader using the keystroke, "alt+super+s", (the default toggle), so this is fine, and should please all. Once I got screen reader going, it provided the expected access to the desktop, panel, indicators, and most of the installed applications. Pidgin, however, is no longer accessible with the screen reader. Also, the interaction with the latest Abrowser is a bit strange--some pages cannot be read correctly, and navigation links, like "skip to content" do not seem to move the focus. In other distros, I've used orca, pulled and built from the master branch, and find that these problems with Mozilla browser 57 have been addressed. For the moment, I am using icecat, where these reading problems don't seem to happen. Options: build orca from master, or recommend that people who need orca use icecat.

I'm glad to note that, after installation, the login screen came up talking; what's more, my settings, used for the installation and testing the live image, were retained and applied to the user, setup during installation.


Can anyone test the other accessibility features, such as the magnifier?



Kind Regards,




Dave  Hunt
