I just installed Debian netinst with the desktop environment. I like the new accessible installer in that I'm able to get a basic system up and running. However, I've encountered the following problems in the first few minutes of using the new system:
1. After boot, speakup starts reading all the boot messages, most of which I don't care about. I can control alt f1 and silence it, but in this case, that's an extra step if I assume I'm already focused on the graphical login soon after. 2. After logging in, I hear welcome to Orca. I get no feedback from anything until I press alt+control+tab, alt f1 to access the menu or alt f2 to run an application. The keys I expect to report, such as caps and num lock, don't say anything. Nor do any of the Orca keys such as insert+space to open the preferences until I do this. 3. After reading a capital letter, eSpeak's pitch doesn't lower. 4. The orca preferences dialogs are confusing. If I shift+tab to the tab control, pressing the right arrow to move to the next one puts me in a random place in the current page's dialog. If I shift+tab past the tab control, I miss the Help, Apply, Cancel and OK buttons. 5. Once I'm logged into gnome, I lose my console speech. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-accessibility-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
