Re: gnopernicus, java, and access bridge on FreeBSD

[Thomas Ward <tward1978 earthlink net>]

Hello, Dave.
Gnome has three different areas of access which can be turned on or off 
depending on the level of accessibility you are aiming for. The first is 
controled by gconf. When you answer yes to accessibility when 
gnopernicus first loads the following
key is set to true
gconftool-2 --set "/desktop/gnome/interface/accessibility" --type 
boolean "True")
I haven't tested this lately, but if you type that key in to a standard 
bash shell prompt it would equal answering yes to the do you want access 
turned on when gnopernicus starts.
The second flag which you can set turns the atk-bridge on for apps such 
as gaim which won't work without it. To turn the atk-bridge on add this 
line to the end of your home .bash_profile.
export GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge
Assuming you have java access bridge installed, which I know you don't 
at this time, you can create a .orbitrc file in your home directory with 
gedit, nano, or another favorite text editor and add the  following line.
ORBIIOPIPv4=1
I'm not sure if you still need this as it has been a while since I did 
an update on everything, but to work with open office you needed to set
SAL_ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1
to get full access to OpenOffice.org.

Hope this helps.
