Luke, thank you very mutch. Longer time, you are absolute right. If we
using now this patched method in Lucid, not producing problems.

Very interesting, GDM language is right (for example my system this is
hungarian.
You would like do your suggested fix with next Ubuntu developing cicle
(10.10)?
How can I help you in future? I would like help if my knowledges is
enough to do suggested fixes and testing.
In future, not only following the matter with not correct detected the
default language speech in Espeak?
Now, a clean hungarian Lucid installation the
/usr/share/espeak-data/voices/default file (the default voice file) is
following:
name default
language en
gender male
The correct is following:
name default
language hu
gender male

If not have preconfigured Orca settings, Orca I think using default
voice file if the synthesizer is Espeak.
What happen if in future we editing this default file with
30accessibility script (change the language=en line to correct actual
choosed installation language in target system)? This is possible work
in future.
But, this future fix is not solving for example the laptop keyboard
layout change problem in GDM screen if the blind user changing Orca
keyboard layout with desktop to laptop if he a notebook owner before the
installation. For example, if in future we not copying the .orca folder
in first user home directory to target system/var/lib/gdm folder,
impossible to use the user for example the Orca flat review commands,
where am I commands, because the keyboard layouts is different with
login screen and the logged user. For example in future, in GDM login
screen the keyboard layout the Orca default desktop layout because not
have .orca stored settings, the first created and logged user the
keyboard layout is laptop, because the user already changed this setting
before the installation and this change is synchronised in target system
the first user home directory. Now, this settings is equals if you apply
the patch in beta2 in Lucid.
