Turning off assitive technologies

[Paolo Galtieri]

This is probably off topic, but I was playing around with the universal 
access technologies on Fedora 24, and I'm in a weird state.

I enabled it in Gnome Classic, but there doesn't seem to be a way to 
turn it off.

If I logout from Gnome Classic and login using the MATE desktop and go 
to the assistive technologies entry in the control panel it shows it as 
not enabled, i.e the checkbox is not checked. However, the system is 
still saying every character I type.  I would have thought that if I 
logout and change desktops it should disable the universal access 
technologies.

Anybody have an idea how to turn it off?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Paolo

If all else fails, uninstall it.

Turned out that rebooting the system worked :-(

Doesn't seem a friendly way to do it

Don't use KDE myself, but Xfce's "Applications->Settings->KDE System
Settings->Workspace->Desktop Behavior->Accessibility" allows you to
set a bunch of accessibility things (screen reader, sticky keys,
gestures, etc.)

Just an idea.
