Hi,
I am a blind person who uses Trisquel 5.0 on his work-a-day system, with
the orca screen reader providing access to the desktop and applications,
using speech output. On learning that 5.5 beta was ready for testing, I
decided to have a look.
I tried running this image from a flash drive with 2 gb persistent
storage. After booting, I ran orca from the dialogue, accessed by a
press of 'alt+f2' from the desktop. Orca speaks through the initial
setup. After making my choices, I allow orca to log me out, then I log
back in. On session restart, orca is supposed to start speaking
automatically, but it does not. When I manually try starting orca, I
get no speech. The only time orca will speak is when forced to do its
initial setup. It seems, the Gnome accessibility support is missing
from this release or isn't set up correctly.
Thanks, and I look forward to testing the new release,
Dave
