You have been a big help -- I think I do have something running here, if |
46 |
I could get orca to talk I would probably be good to go, but the |
47 |
recomended keystroke super-alt-s does not work. hmmm, I was just |
48 |
poking and indeed orca is starting from gdm, but it seems not to have |
49 |
the correct options. The only thing I see is |
50 |
/usr/share/gdm/greeter/autostart/orca-autostart.desktop but that one |
51 |
does have the correct options, but orca definitely has no speech, so I |
52 |
think my problem will be solved if I can get orca to start talking |
53 |
correctly. Now once I login orca does start talking, so its only with |
54 |
the gdm that it does not work, so we are very nearly there. |
