Re: [orca-list] Orca still doesn't work with brl support

["Sauro Cesaretti" <cesaretti netsons org>]

Hi Willie and everyone,
First, thanks for all indications.
Now I can compile correctly the last version of orca downloaded from 
subversion.
I've followed the package pyrex and compiled again brltty, after that all 
went in the right way.
After the compilation, I configured orca with orca --setup and I enabled the 
braille support but
first, when the configuration stage has finished, I receive a message
that I should set the DISPLAY environment variable but
I don't know how.
The problem now is that, when I start orca from gnome, I can hear the voice 
but I can't read from my braille display, even if I started brltty daemon 
before starting gnome.
Now what kind of test can I do?
Which colud be the solution for my problem?
At the end, I can even add that I made the test with python to verify if hte
python binding for brlapi works correctly and the test was successful.
thanks for all indication again
Best regards, Sauro
