Re: [orca-list] starting orca after debean installation

[David Hunt <dahunt posteo de>]

I recently downloaded a Debian Testing image; after installing, I 
noticed that pulseaudio was not installed, yet, speech-dispatcher was 
set to use pulse.  The fix:  I went to another console and used the 
running espeakup to install the missing package, then rebooted. Lightdm 
came up talking, but my entered keystrokes did not speak; am ok with 
that, since there are two prompts for logging, one each for username and 
password.  The system is happily running.

Incidentally, which desktop did you choose to use during installation?  
I'm using Mate; it's all working as I like, now.  If one chooses GNOME 
instead, she should get gdm as display manager.


Cheers,


Dave
