Hello, I do have Mate running. I did use the run box using alt+F2. In the run box I typed: "orca --replace". I was told that a brief message appears telling me that the screen reader started. While in Mate I can go into the console and speakup is working. In the console, the process command does not show Orca running: $ ps -e | grep -i orca The Orca settings directory is not there. HOME/.local/share/orca I upgraded the Orca package it is up-to-date. How do I recreate the orca settings? Peter T. Original message Hello list, Orca is no longer starting when I bring up Mate. How do I recreate the settings directory? HOME/.local/share/orca I am running The Talking ArchLinux which boots to the command line. When necessary, I go to Mate by starting the lxdm display manager. The problem started after I upgraded all the packages. Now Orca no longer starts when Mate comes up. Following a suggestion, I deleted the Orca settings folder and then I ran “orca –replace” and orca does not come up talking. I upgraded the orca package. Whenever I run “orca –replace’, a Screen reader starting Message appears briefly. The Orca setting directory is not being created. When Mate is up, I can go into a console and speakup works. The process command does not indicate that Orca is running. $ ps –e | grep –I orca This same command, in Vinux 5, does indicate that Orca is there with a status of “sl”. If the lack of the Orca settings directory is the problem, how do I recreate it? Thanks, Peter T. |
