Re: [orca-list] orca just says welcome and that is all

[Alex Midence <alex midence gmail com>]

Hi,

A few questions, if you please:

1.  What version of Orca are you running?
2.  What Linux distribution are you running it on?
3.  How did you go about upgrading?   From source, third party repository, 
ETC.

Barring an answer to those questions, the first thing I'd try would be to 
uninstall and reinstall Orca from a console session using speakup.   Not 
knowing what distribution you are running, I can't give you specific 
commands to do that with.  I seem to recall seeing your name on the vinux 
list in the past so, assuming it's a flavor of Ubuntu like Vinux:

sudo apt-get purge gnome-orca
sudo apt-get install gnome-orca

Or:

> From orca source directory:
make uninstall
make clean
./configure
make
sudo make install

I understand there's a cleaner way to do this with autogen but I've always 
done it this way and had it work for me with Orca sources i've gotten from 
the gnome ftp site.


Regards
Alex M
