Problems starting the Linux Screen Reader LSR

["Dirk Marrenbach" <marrenbach ift uni-stuttgart de>]

Dear Sirs,

 

I'm looking for an alternative system to Windows and JAWS for Windows.

 

I'm trying to install the Linux Screen Reader (LSR) onto a Linux Mint System (Version 6). I'm using a HP 6820s Notebook with 2 GB RAM. The Mint Linux and the GNOME 2.24 System runs very well.

 

After starting the LSR the following message appears: 

 

 

 

lsr-list gnome org

marrenbach mint ~/Desktop $ lsr

Linux Screen Reader ver. 0.5.3 rev. Mon Jun 4 17:21:12 UTC 2007

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/bin/lsr", line 29, in <module>

AEMain.main()

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lsr/AEMain.py", line 624, in main

mtd(options)

File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/lsr/AEMain.py", line 385, in run

raise ValueError(_('Profile %s does not exist') % options.profile)

ValueError: Profile None does not exist

We have checked all possibilities that are described on our website, but the result is always the same.

What I have to do now?

Thank you!
