Title:
Single Key Accessible Installation
Status in “gfxboot-theme-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: ubiquity
To choose accessible installation/LiveCD using a screen reader in
Ibex 8.10 desktop CD, you have to press enter to select your language
and then press F5 key, three down arrows and press return key to
select screen reader. I have worked with half a dozen blind users and
this process to get screen reader started is a pain. I suggest perhaps
we should just have a single key like F12 to start screen reader mode.
This would probably also require the implementation of the changes
recommended on the orca sysadmin page to allow people to run admin
apps from the terminal. It would also require a fix for the problem
that Orca still won't support admin apps launched from menus rather
than the terminal. I have a work around for this - change the menu
launcher commands to launch an application in terminal and add sudo to
the beginning of each command. However I am not sure if this is
Ubuntu's, Gnome's or Orca's responsibility to fix!
