Hello all,

We wrote a spec for feisty to add accessibility functionality to the 
login manager, GDM. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Accessibility/Specs/AccessGDM

This does not look like it will happen as no work has been done in 
Ubuntu or upstream on making the themed greeter (which everyone uses by 
default) accessible. The folks at SUN have made the old-style one work 
with Orca on Solaris.

For me at least, even that still just breaks on Ubuntu Feisty. Has 
anyone tried getting this to work in Ubuntu? The Orca changelog for 
2.17.4 suggests adding

<Control>o  1 1000 10000  /bin/sh -c "GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge ctrun 
-l child -i none orca -n
-d main-window"

to /etc/X11/gdm/modules/AccessKeyMouseEvents

Has anyone tried this? If/when it breaks are there any useful log files 
produced?

Henrik
