Hi,

I recall you may be able to place them in your .profile but it's been a long time.

There also should be a global configuration file for what is exported to your X server if Fedora is still using Xorg.


Good luck

Hello everyone,


My name's Francisco, and I'm a blind highschool kid who just recently started using Linux.

I first went with Ubuntu, switched to Arch, and then, came across Fedora, which I'm using right now to send this email for example.

I have to admit, I'm finding the experience both with the OS and Gnome pretty good so far, but there's one little question that I'd like answered if possible.

In the home directory of my Fedora installation, there doesn't seem to exist a .xinitrc file, which, by a guide i gathered from Arch, has some accessibility options set to enabled or disabled.

Well, because of that, i believe, google chrome, signal, the messaging app, and other apps that worked perfectly, and talked, with Orca, yeah, i forgot, i use orca cause I'm blind, are not working here, or so i think, cause so I gather from my experiences.

The accessibility options are


export GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge
export GNOME_ACCESSIBILITY=1
export QT_ACCESSIBILITY=1
export QT_LINUX_ACCESSIBILITY_ALWAYS_ON=1

Well, my question is, is there a way to enable those, or to make sure they are enabled, creating a xinitrc file, or adding those options to somewhere?

I'm not that experienced with Linux, but I'm trying to use it as a day to day work machine, and i can, but, this thing about these accessibility options being enabled or not is bothering me, especially because I can't seem to be able to use Chrome, which is the browser i always use.

Than you for any answer.

Best regards.

Francisco.

P.S. The Fedora list directed me here.
