Re: [orca-list] Problem running orca

You'll need a synth if you want any speech!
Try the following commands
export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN="gtk"
export GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge
startx
As far as python3 goes, I've ran both python 2 and 3 on Arch, Debian,
and Ubuntu with no conflicts whatsoever.

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

Install the "speech-dispatcher" package then, run spd-conf

Hmmm. 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.

Sincerely,

No I don't. I only see, via xbrlapi, "Screen reader orca"
(so a window whose title is "screen reader orca"). But
indeed, I don't have "Welcome to orca". Thanks for your
help.

Hi,

I'm in progress in my experiences, but still not with
an orca. I explain. 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.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

JPM
