I always get this error when I sign in. Orca doesnt seem
to work on the signin screen, nor does it start after signing in. Using Ubuntu
21.04.
I realized what went
wrong.
Typically when I
install Linux, the first thing I do is do apt update and then apt upgrade,
before installing anything.
I forgot to do this
this time, so I did it after having no luck with Voxin, and then installed
voxin 3.3rc4 again, and restarted, and then found Voxin in the synth
list. BTW, it was always listed as IBM, and not
Voxin.
But the insert +
space does not work on the mate desktop for calling up Orca preferences, it
did originally on this install.
It also worked in the
login window, but once it booted to the desktop, I still had to run orca -s
for the settings.
Not a big deal for me
now, because I don't typically change those once I got things how I like
them.
I always turn off
modifier keys and navigation keys, and I raise the speed to 70, and lower the
pitch to 40.
Also, I keep getting
a Ubuntu error on boot up in the desktop, and I enter on send error report,
and I don't know if that helps or not.
Maybe that error has
something to do with the Orca troubles I had.
Is there a way to
scan system files, like Windows SFC?

Subject: Voxin Not
Working
I just installed
Ubuntu Mate (ubuntu-mate-20.04.2.0-desktop-amd64)
Orca is working, but
I tried to install the latest Voxin (IBM) which is
voxin-enu-3.3rc4.x86_64.
and it seemed to
install okay, but I didn't hear the IBM speak a little during the install,
like it usually does.
So after a reboot, I
tried voxin 3.1 and same.
Then I tried Voxin
2.2 with still no IBM voice.
Strangely, now insert
+ space does not launch Orca settings, it opens whatever I am focused on at
the time.
So I ran orca -s and
got the Orca settings, but IBM was not in the list of
synthesizers.
Anybody got a clue on
this one?
