Re: [orca-list] orca and gdm no longer playing nicely together




Thanks for your quick response.  Unfortunately, when I start orca by hand it says cannot start the screen 
reader, cannot connect to the desktop.

I am running 2.38.0 of at-spi2-core, if that gives you any more information.  Orca still runs fine once I log 
in, so this is really strange.

Thanks again.

Hi John.

A while back there was a bug in which Orca + GDM no longer were
working. The bug was fixed (it wasn't an Orca bug).
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/at-spi2-core/-/issues/25

In the meantime, I just committed a change to master to handle the
error you cited, but I don't think that's the the underlying problem.

HTH.

If I log in "blind" then orca works normally.

I am using the infamous gtk+3.24.24, if that makes any difference and
gdm 3.36.4.  The orca master is as of
commit ee411f2f0ef9e9908ad7a48f4f4083e662b5b67e (HEAD -> master,
origin/master, origin/HEAD)

I also get from the kernel

Dec 15 04:15:44 ccs.covici.com kernel: proc: Bad value for 'hidepid'

Any assistance on this one would be appreciated.
