Re: [orca-list] What happened with Orca in Oneiric

[Guy Schlosser <guyster104 att net>]

Hey there Jude and thanks for the tip.  That's actually what I did that 
caused the whole loop I think.  The orca window was getting in the way, 
so I went into preferences, and unchecked the box.  All was good for the 
rest of the session until I shutdown for the night.  When I powered up 
eight hours later, and every other time I started up my laptop, I got 
"welcome to orca setup.", as if orca is trying to say, "you don't want 
to show my window, screw you."  I would love to go back in and re-check 
it, but I can't get past the orca setup 20 questions.  I did notice that 
Orca 3.2 was released yesterday, so maybe I'll try to update and see if 
I can break the setup barrior.  Any other tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and good job to everyone,


Guy
