Re: [orca-list] Orca at install time on Ubuntu server 15.04?



Do you mean that you think the ubuntu server installation disk is probably inaccessible? Because speakup is now just a set of kernel modules. The ubuntu kernel developers would have to exclude it deliberately. I have only virtual machines to check it on but modinfo shows me that the speakup_soft module is included on my ubuntu 15.04 server. But I didn't do that install.

hi
Is there any chance you could use the desktop edition, but install whatever software you need for your school work? After all, any software that will run on ubuntu server will run on ubuntu desktop. I don't know how easy server edition is to install, but unless it comes with a desktop it's likely inaccessible unless speakup is included, which is unlikely.

That's just it. I'm trying to install it, so it's got nothing there just
yet. On the desktop edition, I can make Orca show up no problem at all
before I start the install process. Not so much on the server edition.

hi
Just out of curiosity, does the ubuntu server edition have a desktop
installed? If so, what desktop is it? If unity, all you're supposed to need to do is press alt+windows+s to get orca to speak. After that orca should start automatically. If this fails, press alt+f2 to open up the run dialog
and type orca --replace. If this still doesn't work I'll have to dig
further, although orca --replace is supposed to cause orca to start, killing
any other orca procs that may be running but hung.
Thanks

Hello,
  I'm required to have Ubuntu 15.04 server edition running in a VM for
school assignments. However, the usual tricks for getting Orca running
don't appear to be playing nice. Is there a means and method of doing
so, or will I need to do something convoluted that involves first
booting to the desktop edition ISO? I can do that if I need to, but if
there's an easier way I'm all for it. Thanks for the help either way.
