Re: [orca-list] Anyone using Mint with orca?

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel panix com>]

I have used mint cinnamon and mint xfce with orca and earlier mint lmde 
with orca.  It is possible starting the whisker menu with the start key 
and tabbing and down arrowing around in there to find settings manager in 
xfce.  Once you run settings manager you land in a search box.  If you 
type accessibility into that box and hit enter you get put into an 
assistive technology frame with one checkbox which is unchecked.  If you 
check that checkbox and then exit out and restart mint xfce orca comes on 
to log you in then orca dies.  You have to run orca again to get it up for 
the session after logging in.  Similar behavior happens on mate cinnamon. 
It could be something is in the orca desktop file to cause this behavior 
by default.
