You don't need to specify a username. Wait long enough, and gdm will launch the GNOME Desktop for you, at which point you can issue Alt+F2, type 'orca' and press ENTER to configure Orca. You'll then be asked if you want to logout in order that Orca settings take effect. Do it and be patient a second time. Once again, gdm will eventually hand you off to the GNOME Desktop, but there will not be speech yet. Once again, issue Alt+F2, type 'orca' and press enter. You'll now have a system talking via Orca and Festival. Unfortunately, there are no sonic queues to let you know the Desktop has loaded. I think this is a design error in general, whether or not one is on a live disk, but that's the way it is. So, just be very patient. It does work. I've even managed to launch on an older machine with only 256Mb RAM. Janina Christian writes: > Hi all, > I have just downloaded and booted the new FC10 Live CD. I managed to enable accessibility with Orca, but after I think finished logged out i tried logging back in but nothing happened. Does anyone know the username? I tried logging in as linux with the password linux but with no luck. > Many thanks, > Christian > > > _______________________________________________ > Blinux-list mailing list > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list -- Janina Sajka, Phone: +1.202.595.7777; sip:janina@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Partner, Capital Accessibility LLC http://CapitalAccessibility.Com Marketing the Owasys 22C talking screenless cell phone in the U.S. and Canada Learn more at http://ScreenlessPhone.Com Chair, Open Accessibility janina@xxxxxxxx Linux Foundation http://a11y.org _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
