Re: [orca-list] Raspbian: Problem starting orca under ratpoison



Howdy Lars,

If you are willing to try another distro other than Raspbian, you could use F123Light. It is based on Arch 
Linux and has working orca, speech-dispatcher, and a CLI that uses Fenrir. If you would like to give it a 
shot, please let me know and I will send more instructions.

Thanks,
Storm

Hi, list!

To be able to use a GUI browser when needed, I'd like to get orca to run
on my rpi 3 with Raspbian.

In the .ratpoisonrc file, I have

exec /usr/bin/orca -d speech -e braille

I start ratpoison from xinitrc, and I use startx >logfile.log 2>&1

I the log, I get

X.Org X Server 1.20.4

[...]

   if not Gst.Bin.add(self, arg):

Any idea on what's going on? As speech is disabled, I'd suppose no sound either.

Thanks

Lars
