David, thanks for bringing up this issue on the list. This has been discussed on various Bugzillas since before the winter break, and I think this is a much better forum for getting this issue behind us. > I'd like to see if we can solve this configuration (?) issue on list as > it seems it may involve a coordinated effort.

We (Novell) have been following bmo #460926 intently, and Hubert has prepared openSUSE 11.1 packages with the fix you've provided. I've tested this build in concert with the atk-bridge change (that will be dropping in openSUSE 11.1 shortly) and they don't appear to fix Firefox's lack of accessibility. This is with a stock openSUSE 11.1 VMWare image and no gconf changes. Is there some component I'm missing to get this to work? > If anyone has a recent Firefox (nightly or trunk) with accessibility > working on a recent GNOME stack, and are NOT using the workaround above > please let us know. If this isn't happening we may need to reopen bmo > 460926... To add to the list of bugs: Novell's Firefox issue: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=457728 OpenSUSE 11.1 packages are available on the above bug for those who would like to test for us.
