Re: [orca-list] Orca starts but exits without doing anything in one account

Hi Michael:

It might possible that some other application has automatically started 
and has caused a blockage in the AT-SPI.  emacs causes this kind of 
thing to happen, for example.

Do you know if any other application might be running on the desktop? 
You might be able to check this by doing an "xlsclients".
