Subject: Re: orca on debian stretch testing
Hi, I just installed Debian testing using the net installation iso
for the week of November 28th, 2016 and the only major issues I found
is that if you press a key espeakup lags around a little behind of
when you press the key. Orca came up talking as I just chose the
defaults during the installation. I used the image that included the
non-free firmware as both my network cards require firmware. What
installation image did you use to install with? Nick Gawronski

In addition to the problem I have with panels accessibility, the
orca on stretch testing only responds to the keyboard shortcuts to
turn it on and to turn it off. Flat review and all other orca
keystrokes do not work. This second problem could be contributing to
the first problem since without those keystrokes available to do
things with orca even if orca could read panels with some different
settings used there's no way to get to them on this machine. This
relegates debian to the same status as windows here; if I can't
install it and fix it myself without sighted assistance it won't be
on my equipment.
