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

[Peter Vágner <pvagner pvagner tk>]

Hello,


Can you make orca to find at-spi when you run it with


orca --replace


Are you running apparmor or something else that might block dbus 
communication?

Otherwise try to explore environment variables and try to find out where 
the accessibility bus is created if orca is looking to the same path.


Also I am not yet sure what's going on but when I call

ps aux | grep at-spi

on a working system, I am seeing these three things running

usr/lib/at-spi-bus-launcher
usr/bin/dbus-daemon 
--config-file=/usr/share/defaults/at-spi2/accessibility.conf --nofork 
--print-address 3
usr/lib/at-spi2-registryd --use-gnome-session


I don't know more at this time, but perhaps thinking about this aloud 
might be somewhat helpfull.


Greetings


Peter
