Description Matthias Clasen 2006-09-04 01:25:27 UTC

Orca puts a menu item in Applications->Other. 
The entry behaves oddly, it seems to do two things at once,
start orca, and present the preferences dialog. Clicking it
multiple times does not work as expected, and there is no obvious
way to stop orca again.

Comment 1 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-04 01:28:10 UTC

Furthermore, turning off speech does not seem to turn of speech.

i get this, when i start orca from command line (orca-1.0.0-1.fc6.i386.rpm):

Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-07 19:32:53 UTC

See the upstream bug for ideas how to work around some of the issues.

Comment 4 Matthias Clasen 2006-09-20 04:12:24 UTC

The orca menuitem is gone, John has added a Preferences button to the
a11y prefs instead. This clearly needs more work post-FC6, but that should
probably happen upstream.
