Hi Peter, I would be happy to try the cvs release. However, is the version in cvs still compatible with Gnome 2.8? Alot of us out here are running Fedora 3 or Mandriva latest, and 2.10 is still on the way. I would hate to have to do a major upgrade/compile of gnome since i find 2.8 reasonable with accessibility, but the gnopernicus constant speech issues makes me want to resolve that problem asap. Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Korn" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Thomas Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <gnome-accessibility-list@gnome.org> Sent: Sunday, June 05, 2005 10:48 PM Subject: Re: can't get multimedia working with any browser
