Fedora-MATE-Compiz

[Maksym Bilak]

Hello.

Using this mailing list, I would like to contact the developers of the 
Fedora-MATE-Compiz distribution. I would be very grateful for solving 
the problems described below.

1. By default, the keyboard shortcut for the Toggle screen reader is not 
assigned in the distribution. Could you assign a keyboard shortcut super 
+ alt + s to the Toggle screen reader? This key combination has already 
become a peculiar standard.
It will make life easier for people with visual impairment ...

2. When installing the system on a hard drive, closer to the end of the 
process, the Orca screen reader suddenly turns off (I hear Screen Reader 
Off). I can easily restart Orca; But this situation will cause 
discomfort for less experienced users.
There are no special conditions to reproduce the situation. Just try 
installing the system on your hard drive by turning on Orca.

3. I do not know if this is a bug. When installing Fedora-Workstation, 
selecting the Ukrainian language in the first dialog, I saw that the 
time zone was configured correctly (Europe Kyiv). Fedora-MATE-Compiz 
automatically adjusts the time zone (America New York).
I installed both systems without connecting to the Internet.

4. Add, please, the NetworkManager-ppp package to future releases. This 
will allow users who do not have an alternative to the mobile Internet 
to connect to the Internet without additional manipulations.

5. Using the Ukrainian MATE interface, I can not configure the keyboard 
shortcuts to switch between keyboard layouts.
Steps to reproduce:

5.1. Ukrainian interface language MATE;

5.2. Press Alt + F1 to enter the main menu;

5.3. Submenu Система (System);
5.4. Submenu Налаштування (Preferences);
5.5. Submenu Пристрої (Hardware);
5.6. Activate an item Набірниця (Keyboard);
5.7. Select a tab Розкладки (Layouts);
5.8. Click the button Параметри (Options...).

After that, "Keyboard" closes and the focus falls onto the desktop.
I also note that this problem is missing when using the English-language 
interface of MATE.
This problem is absent, for example, in the distribution of Ubuntu-MATE.

I would be very grateful for the attention to these problems; And sorry 
for my bad English.

It is unlikely that the developers will see this on the users list.
The way to bring this to their attention is to open a bugzilla against
mate at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/.  You will have to follow through
the menus to fedora, and select mate.  In the subject line put 'request
for enhancement' so they know it is suggestions for fixes.  They will
probably have to send it upstream to the actual developers, unless they
are the developers.

You could just cut and paste the list of problems that you sent in the
email into the bugzilla ticket.

To open such a ticket, you will need a login ID if you don't already
have one.  It is usually just an email address and a password, and then
a confirmation email comes to you.  That will allow them to contact you
with questions, and updates to the ticket will be sent to you as emails.

As a native speaker, I would not call your English bad.

Hello Stan.

Thank you for your reply.

I created a bug report (hopefully done everything right):

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1607360

Looks good to me, but the maintainer is the real judge.

FWIW, I would not see this as a bug.

You're installing the system without an internet connection.  This means the install
process has no connection to NTP servers and really no idea where it is in the
world.  So, it must then default to somewhere.  It isn't logical that just because
you've picked Ukrainian that the system is located in the Ukraine.

Hello.

You probably did not understand me correctly ...

I do not mean automatically setting the correct time zone when you are 
not connected to the Internet. )

If you are not connected to the Internet, Fedora-Workstation 
automatically adjusts the time zone for Europe Kyiv (Kyiv is the capital 
of Ukraine). My time zone may be different (for example, Europe Uzhgorod).
I m only suggesting that another behavior in the Fedora-MATE-Compiz 
distribution might be a bug.
