Public bug reported:

Affects: casper (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
Booting the live CD with F5+choice2 should start gnome with settings
optimised for low vision users. Current, the setup uses a hybrid theme
which includes the high contrast icons, but not the widgets and the
larger font.

A 'High Contrast with Large Print' theme is fully installed on the live
system, so it's just a matter of a few clicks to activate the right
theme. I'm not sure what config parameters need to be set to make this
work from first boot, but I'll work with Luke and others to find out and
post more when I know.

Also: We have agreed to use a plain single-colour background for this
theme (light gray?). There should also be a large mouse cursor. xcursor-
themes has been promoted to main for this purpose. (again, I'll work on
finding the required settings).
