Re: [orca-list] No speech from orca in GUI in arch but espeakup works fine.



Is there a way to disable the screen saver with speakup? Is there a wiki link to the orca or what? I am not 
sure what the screen saver has to do with orca, but will take a look. I don’t recall having to doing anything 
to get orca running before. I think it was a Chang in arch at some point.

One of the problems is the screen saver is running and it will help to
disable that.  Once you get into g.u.i. try screen-reader --replace
<enter> from the alt-f2 command prompt.  That may be enough to get stuff
going a little more.

Hi, orca comes up, but without speech. After installing mate and orca I did the following command. farting 
set org.mate.interface accessibility true which worked. There is just no speech in GUI. I am using GDM as 
my login manager if that matters.

Doing the gsettings steps to enable accessibility helps with that
problem.  I think you can find them on the orca documentation wiki.
Fortunately, you can do all of those commands in espeak on the console.
Then if what you installed was mate alt-f2 screen-reader otherwise
alt-f2 orca should work the first time.

Hi all,

Yesterday I installed arch using the tarch image from the talking arch site and all went well but afterr 
installing a GUI and starting orca I found that though audio sounds work fine, orca is silent and I am 
not sure why.  Any idea how to fix this?  Espeakup works fine and so I am wondering if it is an audio 
thing with pulse audio or something else.  I could try to change the audio out to also, but wanted to 
see if anyone else had this happen and how did they fix this.  Thanks.

Matthew
