This is because Firefox is still using GConf to check if accessibility is enabled, when it really needs to be using GSettings. I've just realized this is still the case, so I assume that the screen reader still won't work by default To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/857153/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
