Re: Two questions



Hello, Tom.
If gnome is your default desktop for x-windows simply  typing startx will launch x-windows with gnome.
This assumes you have x-windows installed, properly  configured, and Gnome is your default desktop environment.
As for gnopernicus this needs more explanation as much of this is not totally documented at this time.
Assuming gnopernicus is installed with all the dependancies you'll first need to enter this gconf key in at the shell prompt for every user which you plan to enable gnome accessibility for:
gconftool-2 --type bool --set /desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility true
Once the gnconf key is set you should startx and after x is loaded do an alt-f2 for run, type gnopernicus, and press enter. If all is well gnopernicus should start and say welcome to gnopernicus.
As for your braille display you need to grab the latest brltty braille api, get gnopernicus 0.7.1, and compile, configure, and set gnopernicus up for the braille display support.
 I'm no expirt on setting up braille display support in gnopernicus, but I know there others on the list that can help you more specifically with the display.
Hth.

Subject: Two questions

I am running a debian system.  I just installed gnome 2.4 and it appears to have installed correctly (meaning I saw no errors).  However I see nothing in the documentation on gnome.org that tells me how to start it and I don't seem to find any documentation on how to make gnopernicus work with it.  So these are the two questions:
 
1.  How do I start gnome?
2. How do I get it to come up with gnopernicus running and using my alva braille display?  Please note that while there ia a soundcard on the computer I don't know if it is recognized and it has no speakers and there is no speech wynth on the computer so it is braille only.
 
Tom
