Re: startx missing twm and xclock

2017-09-10 Thread Linux for blind general discussion
For reference, here's my ~/.xinitrc. I don't claim all these directives
are still necessary. Things change, but my startx is still working
reliably for me on Arch Linux:


export SAL_USE_VCLPLUGIN="gtk"
export GTK_MODULES=gail:atk-bridge
 
exec gnome-session

Re: startx missing twm and xclock

2017-09-09 Thread Linux for blind general discussion

Something else interesting came up when I ran:
sudo -H Xorg -configure
specifically, a segmentation fault at address 0x50.  This is an old amd 
k8 Athelon system so may be too old to run xorg I don't know.
I did install xorg-xclock and xorg-twm and startx takes me into a 
windowed environment though commands I key in have no effect for some 
reason.  I'm going to try running startx and then do 
control-alt-backspace and see if that will even shut xorg down.

Subject: startx missing twm and xclock

Is xclock useable in screen reader accessibility context for xorg?  What is 
the best choice for a wm for screen reader accessibility context?  With 
startx, how is it run so startx goes into configuration mode?  For this last 
question startx writes output to stderr and I haven't yet been able to 
capture it with less so I can examine it in detail.
