Hi,

Firefox 3.0 does not work with Orca. I am using Gnome 2.22 from ports and
I have upgraded my ports tree this morning and run a portupgrade to
re-build the ports. I installed /usr/ports/x11/gnome2.

The only message Orca is able to give when I enter Firefox is "Restore
Previous Session Inaccessible", meaning that no controls are visible at
all.

This holds true for websites as well.

To re-produce the problem:

1) Install /usr/ports/audio/espeak and re-build gnome-speech in order to
get speech.
2. Run Orca.
3. Orca should take care of enabling accessibility support for Gnome. Log
out.
4) Run firefox3 with Orca running. Even though one can use the tab key to
move around, nothing is spoken.

Since this is the only thing that keeps Ubuntu on my system, I would
really like to have this problem fixed.

I have built a debug image of Firefox 3, would the debug log be of any use
in solving this problem?

Looking forward to any response.

Cheers,

Peter.
