Re: [orca-list] testing Thunderbird

Hi Alonzo,

You're using 32-bit thunderbird with 64-bit libgail.so.
It won't work.

You can install a 32-bit Ubuntu, it should be fine then.

Hello,
Yes, the path is the same one where the file is located.

Hi,
I'm puzzled. (I'm a version behind you, running Gutsy, 32-bit.) I'm not an
Orca developer, but I'm pretty sure that gail is needed for Orca to run 
properly.  So, the library should be in the load path.  Just out of
curiosity, is that path in the error message where your libgail.so file is 
located? You can find it using (at a terminal prompt):

find /usr -name libgail.so -print

I know that mine is in /usr/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libgail.so.
I'm afraid that someone who knows the internals of Linux better than I do 
needs to help you.  Good luck,

dave

Hello Dave,
I am running ubuntu 8.04, the 64 bit edition. Iam currently running orca version 2.2.3. However, I will upgrade if I am able to get thunderbird installed. I unzipt the file through the graphical desktop, gnome, then 
went to the gnome terminal and ran
./thunderbird
That's when it gave me this error
gtk message, failed to load module gail
/usr/lib/gtk-2.0/libgail.so wrong class
ELFCLASS64
Another queiton, do I need ot rebuild my gnome environment, or do I just 
upgrade and install orca?


Alonzo

Hi,

A few questions...

What distribution are you using?

Is it 32-bit or 64-bit?

What version of Orca?
When you say you are installing, what does that mean? As I remember the instructions on the wiki page, you need to uncompress and untar the file, 
then run Thunderbird. So, what installation is going on?

Thanks,

dave

Hi, Michael,
It sounds like you've installed version 2.0 of Thunderbird. Sadly, that 
version is not accessible.  To find out, try typing at the command
prompt:

thunderbird --version
You need to be using Thunderbird 3.0. For information on how to install 
it,
go to:

http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Thunderbird
You should know that there are lots of bugs with both Thunderbird 3.0 and Orca when accessing Thunderbird. The Orca development team are trying to 
fix
the bugs before the next gnome release. However, to try these bug fixes out, you need to be using the svn trunk version of Orca. I think there 
is
information about this on the web page above.

Good luck,

dave

Hi Alonzo:
Actually the jibberish in the msg is what concerns me and being able to 
read the msg body. I'm logged into windows now and am using outlook
(Excuse) LOL express to check the mailing list. As for the install, I 
ran:
apt-get dist--upgrade
After an over night of the machine downloading the packages, I then ran: 
apt-get install mozilla-thunderbird
As I said though, I'b not sure how to read the emails or send in
english.
LOL

HTH
