All the other
suggestions and questions notwithstanding, I wonder if anyone's
tackled the most fundamental problem:
Orca does not read Xterm. It never has in my experience neither with braille nor with speech. Gnome-termilnal yes, xterm? Ce n'est pas posible, mon ami. Also, OpenBox is something I thought was not accessible. If you require minimal resources, perhaps you should try getting LXDE to work for you. There are some messages in the archives of this mailing list which give the steps. I do not use LXDE but Jonathan Nadeau and a few others have posted about this in the past. Bonne Chance, Alex M --

I've installed one. Even after spd-conf, I've nothing else. But right, at this time, I've not installed any speech synthetiser (espeak). I hope I'll be able to use braille only. I needn't speech synthetiser usually.Is there a reason you don't want python3?I try optimizing at maximum my system and as I use python2 for most applications, I'm not so happy if both python2 and 3 are installed. Both would be large on the system. And most apps don't support python3 yet. Well if I cannot do better, I'll install it, but first, I'd ;ike to know if I can use Python2. I also don't know if I don't risk conflicts between modules and releases.

I use openbox, and I run orca from an xterm terminal. I issue: orca --enable=braille I have nothing. orca runs, but nothing seems to appear, including the preferences window. I precise at-spi2-registryd is running. So I run, while xterm is running and on a terminal (tty1): DISPLAY=:0 orca --enable=braille On the console, I get: File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gi/types.py", line 47, in function return info.invoke(*args, **kwargs) gi._glib.GError: Could not locate wnck_screen_get_default: (null) orca crashes (I can kill it only with a kill -s 9 command). I precise what I want: running orca from xterm (or at X boot time via openbox autostart or what else I'll find), and having displayed the preferences window. Then, with alt-tab, I could access to OOo and firefox. Xterm would say "inaccessible" but no problem, I don't mind. Is this behavior expected? Does a stack miss in my system? I still use orca 3.6.2, as I'd like to avoid Python3 required with latest orca releases. I have installed pygobject and libwnck. But some stack must miss in my architecture of accessibility.
