Re: [orca-list] at-spi-dbus not launching

[Janina Sajka <janina rednote net>]

There is a service and a socket for dbus. Both are loaded and showing no
errors.

I do not see one for at-spi. I do see a script in:
=/etc/xdg/autostart/at-spi-dbus-bus.desktop

I do see the following in journalctl:

[session uid=1000 pid=2708] Activating via systemd: service
name='org.a11y.Bus' unit='at-spi-dbus-bus.service' requested by ':1.0'
(uid=1000 pid=2703 comm="mate-session ")
Starting Accessibility services bus...
[session uid=1000 pid=2708] Successfully activated service
'org.a11y.Bus'
Started Accessibility services bus.

dbus-daemon[2715]: Activating service name='org.a11y.atspi.Registry'
requested by ':1.0' (uid=1000 pid=2703 comm="mate-session ")
dbus-daemon[2715]: Successfully activated service
'org.a11y.atspi.Registry'
SpiRegistry daemon is running with well-known name -
org.a11y.atspi.Registry

Those are the same both on the old machine where Orca is working fine, and
the new one where it isn't.
