Re: [orca-list] orcasuddenly doesn't speak

Hi Mike:

Bummer!  Do you have any other means to access at least a virtual 
console (e.g., brltty or emacspeak)?  Or, can you telnet/ssh into the 
machine from a different machine?

I suspect all you need to do is get a successful build/install of Orca 
going and things will work OK.  Did you run into issues when you were 
building/installing Orca?

PS - the main reason for deleting the gnome-orca package is so the 
update manager will not get confused.  I've adjusted the WIKI to kind of 
play the importance of this down a little bit, and adjusted the 
recommendation to do the removal only after you've successfully 
build/installed Orca from sources.  Sorry for the trouble!
