When I switched to to classic on my work computer using the proposed at-spi-registry (at least I assume that is what is being used as I have that in my package sources) I am getting immediate at-spi-registry segfault messages and while suprisingly enough orca still reads my desktop itself it does not read any menus or otherwise. I can not restart orca.

Help please.

Hi all,
Further to my previous observations, I have a few more.
1. Many of the toggle buttons in system settings are simply labeled "switch" 
and one must use Orca's review to see what exactly they do. Some examples are the
Bluetooth visibility and enabled toggles, and the toggle settings in the Online 
Accounts preference page. This is a minor issue for the most part, however 
there seem
to be random times when Orca's flat review will not work in these windows. If I 
discover a pattern to this, I'll let everyone know.
2. There seems to be no first letter navigation in the menu bar, that is, for 
any app that integrates with Unity's global menu bar. Is there a way to 
navigate these
menus efficiently when you have a large one, such as my bookmarks in Firefox. I 
can't get first letter navigation to work nor does it seem to have a
highlight-as-you-type mode akin to OS X. The only way I've been able to 
navigate these menus is with arrow keys alone. Has anyone else noticed this? Is 
there
something I'm missing?
3. Sometimes Orca freezes and I have to manually go to a console and kill it. 
This has been an issue with Orca for ages, but I'd really hoped at-spi2/dbus 
would put a
permanent end to it. It wouldn't be so bad in and of itself, but it seems to 
freeze the entire desktop along with it (meaning that I can't just hit my 
shortcut key to
get it back), and it's not even considerate enough to log any relevant debug 
outputĀ  even when the debug level is set to full :-(.

Anyone else seeing these or have any advice?

Thanks
