Re: [orca-list] Gdm 3 and Orca configuration

[Michael Whapples <mwhapples aim com>]

As my memory goes gdm3 is a debian package name and doesn't actually 
represent gdm 3.x, I don't think there has actually been a gdm 3.x 
release yet.

Check what version the gdm3 debian package actually refers to, I guess 
its going to be something like 2.28.x, 2.30.x or 2.32.x in which case 
the instructions on the orca wiki page will apply.

I know this package naming in debian has caught me out before, by 
default I just used the gdm package not realising it was a very old 
version of gdm.
