Hi all
Since we're all discussing bugs, let me add in a couple I've found when
using xfce 4.10 on arch linux. I do have the accessibility settings
enabled in xfce, so it does work with orca, however there are some hard
to reproduce bugs. For example, if I close an ap in xfce, terminal, for
example, orca will randomly crash, causing me to have to restart. Once
orca is restarted with killall -9 orca killall -9 speech-dispatcher,
orca --replace, orca starts up fine, but then refuses to read almost
anything in xfce. The applications menu, any gtk aps I open. The only
fix that I've seen is to either kill x, which can sometimes work, or
restart the machine. There are also lots and lots of speech-dispatcher
segfaults, though i have no idea at all if this is orca related, or a
speech-dispatcher bug. I'm not using pulseaudio at all, but using
speech-dispatcher with alsa, and if there is a phrase that is too long,
perhapse more than a dozen words, the espeak module will segfault out.
Is there a way I can add debug info to orca so if something segfaults, I
can provide orca's tracebacks? If so, i'll put it in my script that
starts orca at login, so it will work from the get go. Sorry for not
being more help, These bugs are not very predictable but they do happen.
