Hi Dave
So far as I can tell, the apps list in software center doesn't read
although the rest of the program does. You're getting further with Skype
than I--I'm able to enter my login credentials in the GUI just fine but,
regular as clockwork, the instant Skype tries to sign in it crashes.
Running it from the terminal to see exactly what's happening gives me
the extremely unhelpful message "Aborted" and nothing else. And I
thought Windows' error messages were vague.

Hi,
I'm running an out-of-the-box installation of 11.10 on my Asus 1015PE
netbook. I'm trying to use the Software Center tool with Orca. When
I search for applications in a category, how can I get Orca to read
the names of the apps resulting from my search? I'd use Synaptic, but
it throws a bunch of errors about missing themes in pixmaps.
Also, I notice that the Skype gui is somewhat accessible, but cannot
seem to set options or enter login credentials. Any ideas? If I run
Skype from a terminal and use the 'pipelogin' option to pass my
credentials, Skype throws errors about pixmaps stuff missing. When I
used apt-get to install Skype and Synaptic, there were no errors
regarding missing or broken dependencies.
Thanks for any help,
Dave Hunt
