The error file was created with file size 0, and, of course, the file
was empty then.

I updated to orca-2.22.2-0.fc9.i386 from the speakupmodified repo.

Trying 'orca -t' from the command line, still gives me errors:

Traceback (most recent call last): 
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module> 
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/orca/orca.py", line 54, in
  <module> 
    import pyatspi 
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/pyatspi/__init__.py", line
  44, in <modu
le> 
    reg = bonobo.activation.activate_from_id(REGISTRY_IID, 0, 0) 
Bonobo.GeneralError 

And from within Gnome, I have the same behaviour as previously. To me,
it looks like orca starts the text setup process, I hear the first
phrases spoken by espeak, and after that, Orca is disappearing
completely.

What should I try to fix this one?
