However, I find myself wishing I could have thelast action of the desktop loading be some sound event -- so that I can know it's now OK to start pressing keys -- to load my screen reader, for instance. And, if this sound doesn't play that would likely be very strong evidence that some message has popped up about something not working correctly -- which just might be successfully dismessed by pressing Esc. I should imagine making some sond file play as the last action of the desktop being loaded is not a difficult thing, but I haven't a clue where to put my aplay command. Advice on that would be most appreciated, e.g. what's the desktop equiv of /etc/rc.local? > -- Rex > > > -- > fedora-devel-list mailing list > fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list -- Janina Sajka Phone: +1.202.595.7777 Partner, Capital Accessibility LLC http://CapitalAccessibility.Com Marketing the Owasys 22C talking screenless cell phone in the U.S. and Canada--Go to http://ScreenlessPhone.Com to learn more.
