Re: [orca-list] Problems runing Orca

["mk360" <rexxe tutopia com>]

Ok, that (and many other things) solved the problem but I can't recomend the 
upgrade from hardy to intrepid, because has many dependencies problems with 
gnome-orca, python-atspi and others... I had to uninstall ATK, Gail, at-spi, 
then continue my upgrade proces, recompile that and for the first time 
compile gnome speech (mmm I don't know if you're going to understand this 
:P).

Best regards,
mk.
