Re: [orca-list] Configuring LightDM



Howdy,
Thanks for the link, I hadn't found that before.  Unfortunately, it is Debian specific while I run Arch 
Linux, and I'm not sure how to get it working on arch. I think mainly the problem is, the file:
/usr/bin/orca-dm-wrapper
Does not exist. I could create the file of course, but I have no idea what goes in it.
The errors seem to be related to at-spi not being launched. So, I wonder how I could tell it to start at-spi? 
Also, I wonder why managers like slim do it by default?
Thanks
Storm

Howdy,

I am playing around with session managers. I have heard that lightdm can
be configured to launch orca at the login screen. I installed it and did
what I thought was the correct configuration with the gtk greeter.

Have you followed these instructions ? https://wiki.debian.org/accessibility#lightdm_accessibility

Further more, orca will not start while
in mate either.

What is your environment (distro, mate version, orca version) ? How do you run Orca ? Are you using the alt+win+s keyboard shortcut ? If you install Debian with braille or speech when you check Mate as desktop everything will be correctly configured automatically.

When tryuing to run it from the terminal, there is a
long list of errors, I'm not sure what they are because there's no
screen reader, and I had a very young helper reading lol.

You could use the TTY to check what's happening.

Best regards.
