Re: [orca-list] Problem with GParted

[Peter Vágner <pvagner pvagner tk>]

Hello,


Okay, let me expand on what I have started in my previous message about 
this topic.


GTK2 and GTK3 include the accessibility support out of the box as 
loadable modules. However with gnome it's somehow configured to always 
load these loadable modules.

We can try to export an environment variable GTK_MODULES with 
gail,atk-bridge to explicitly load these.

However turning on accessibility support in mate does something 
different because this variable is not set. Perhaps it might also work 
if you login as root to mate, enable accessibility and then leave it 
that way.

sudo -E

preserves the user environment when running app as root so this is for 
sure just matter of some tweak for mate however I don't know where this 
can be adjusted.

I'd expect if this worked the same way under mate than it's working 
under gnome.



Greetings


Peter
