Re: Gnome-2.16.1 and Orca-1.0.0

Hi
To fix the inaccessible dialog, export the following variable if  
using bash or a similar shell:
export GTK_MODULES="gail:atk-bridge:gail-gnome"
or if using tcsh:
setenv GTK_MODULES "gail:atk-bridge:gail-gnome"

Also be sure the libgail-gnome component is installed. This is  
important to make most applications read at all.
