[orca-list] Initial ORCA Question

[Christopher Gray <chris bayareadigital us>]

Hello:

I have UBUNTU Linux 6.2 installed on a Dell server.  Using apt-get, what appears 
to be the most recent version of ORCA is installed.  Finally, brltty is 
installed and working in console sessions with a Vario 40.

I have two questions:  1.  As instructed after updating ORCA, I went to have a 
look at /etc/orca.conf.  It's not there, and there's no orca directory there 
that might contain orca.conf.  Where should it be, then?

2.  Even before using apt-get today, I had ORCA and it runs when I boot the 
system.  But, no braille is available when running ORCA.  One possible hint is 
that when I run a command like:

     orca -v  or
     orca -e braille

I get a message saying GtkWarning:  could not open display.

Does this mean the braille display?

Thanks for any advice.

Chris
