I was very surprised how well Orca works with virtualbox, not for 100% but enough to find my way. After starting virtualbox I pressed Control_N for to start similar clicking on the button NEW, which is not accessible for Orca. The Tab key navigates through the items. After finishing the settings of a Guest it will show in the List. Rightclicking on the Guest opens a submenu accessible with the arrow keys. Also the flat review keys read some of the screen. A very important thing is to add a cd / dvd player for to install from a cd or dvd. This was done by first open the Setting menu and tab once from the Save Option. Orca says Tree and I did a right click to open the dropdown menu. With the arrow down key I then do the rest.

How well does virtualbox work on ubuntu? I have been trying to use it under windows and the interface is almost totally inaccessible.

My machine is 32bit but I did:
sudo apt-get install qt-at-spi:i386
and the terminal says that at-spi is already the latest version. Anyway I was now able to install a guest. Many thanks!

Are you running VirtualBox on a 64-bit system? If so, you might have
to install the 32-bit version of the QT accessibility library. I
don't have the command handy, but I believe it's the i386 version of
the qt-at-spi package.

sudo apt-get install qt-at-spi:i386
