Re: [orca-list] Orca problems...

Haha, I agree, it's definitely not as good as the mac. However, Mac is not 
free like linux. And to be fair to the ubuntu (and other distribution) 
developers, I don't think there's an operating system as good as the mac...

Getting back to orca...
I had the same problem, I fixed it by enabling the root account, then loging 
in as root through gdm login screen (not the terminal) and starting orca 
that way. I also run all admin apps through the root account.

Hope this helps.
