I usually don't reply to my own posts, but in reviewing your message again, I realized I can also answer question
3 on your list. No, speakup doesn't work with openoffice.org
applications. What you want for that is orca, a screen reader for the
gnome desktop. Gnome and orca, and the openoffice.org suite as far as
I know, are all included in the speakupmodified fc9. Having said that,
I've done some limited checking out of how well orca works with
openoffice.org, and from that have concluded that it works fairly
well. Maybe someone else with more experience in that area can
comment.
