Re: orca-setup, AttributeError

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Jan:

Thanks very much for providing system information in your request.   
It's a huge help - the most benign looking things may actually be  
quite meaningful.

I believe the main problem here may be related to 64-bit.  The  
management of 64-bit vs. 32-bit libraries on a 64-bit system on Linux  
is a mystery to me (Solaris handles it without issue), and gnome- 
speech doesn't do well with it yet.  To verify this, please try  
running the gnome-speech "test-speech" application to see if it  
works.  My suspicion is that it will fail.

If anyone has experience in this space and can lend a hand on how to  
resolve the problem with gnome-speech on a 64-bit Linux distribution,  
please help!

Thanks,

Will
