RE: Netbeans Accessibility on Linux

Hi,
I didn't realize that for accessibility on Ubuntu you need the Java Access 
Bridge. I thought that the Java Access Bridge was only needed in the Windows 
world to make Java talk to assistive technology that can't see into the virtual 
machine. Where can I learn more about this?

Thanks.

Jim

OpenOffice is not written entirely in Java, and often uses other JRE's
then Son's so does not need the java access bridge to be accessible. I
suggest you check to see if the access bridge is installed on your
computer because I doubt it is installed by default on Ubuntu.
