Re: [orca-list] Accessible Login

[Kenny Hitt <kenny hittsjunk net>]

Hi.

Yes, you need to configure orbit so the ORca runing as your normal user can see the accessibility information 
from admin 
apps you start as the normal user.  If you start the app as root, you won't get access, but with the 
following .orbitrc file in /root,
you will get access to apps started with either sudo or su -c command.
/root/.orbitrc contains:

ORBIIOPIPv4=1
ORBIIOPUNIX=0
ORBLocalOnly=1

This method works on Ubuntu starting with Feisty, as well as Debian boxes starting with testing/Lenny.
