Hy,

Luke, perhaps Ubiquity Orca script spokening miss informations with 
Ubiquity installer (11.04), I don't no future possible resolvable the 
following type problems perhaps Ocelot if Natty Ubiquity installer or 
script impossible resolving some problems. If I known right, Ubiquity 
installer is full localized with hungarian language, but I see some 
interesting problems:
1. Lot of dialogs Orca spokening "live_installer" dialog titles, and for 
example some edit boxes, Orca spokening the hungarian edit box label 
(for example the computer host setting) and spokening an english label 
(host:).
I don't remember all miss spokened dialog widgets, but lot of time 
happening this problem. This type problem is Orca ubiquity script 
related problem, or a mistake design with Ubiquity main dialogs?
If I have a sighted assistance, I will be look what labels real 
presenting the phisical screen this problematic dialogs for hungarian 
language output.
An another example is the timezone setting dialog, with Orca spokening 
an interesting label text for selected time zone.

2. I don't no why, but now Orca doesn't spokening installation progress 
bar, and doesn't possible looking what percentage are completed with 
installation. The progress bar is removed with Ubiquity gtk frontend 
dialog? I think this is not Orca script specific problem.

Except this type problems I succesfuly installed with a modified Ubuntu 
Natty live DVD, now I typed Natty system this e-mail.

What components need reporting this type problems to fix all this type 
problems with future Ocelot?
With modified live DVD I passed the isolinux/txt.cfg with following boot 
parameters:
access=v3 -- debian-installer/language=hu 
keyboard-configuration/layoutcode=hu
