Re: orca on the live cd

2007-10-12 Thread Lubos Pintes
Hi,
I tested Live CD from October 10 with following results:
Atleast on my notebook, there is, I suppose, collision between sound 
playing and Orca speech. Ubuntu on my laptop works, but with these problems:
- It is certainly impossible to do eg. installation simply by clicking 
on the install icon.
- When Orca is speaking and some other app tries to play some sound Orca 
crashes,.

 Haven't checked yet, hope it's fixed by release as I want to test the new 
 ability to do admin tasks.

 Hi, release is coming soon. Has there been any progress on getting orca 
 working on the live CD, or is this one going to be left this way.
 Mike.

On the live cd I'm guessing there's no password so I guess you do the same 
stuff but without the password?

 You first have to set orca up to work.  After you next log in, control-f2
 and type sudo gnome-terminal cr.  If you get asked for password key it
 in.  Then type orca -t cr.  This is what to type to set orca up.

 BrlTTY does not cause any problems. The Braille display is being
 recognized and I am able to smoothly work with it on the console
 (Strg+Alt+F1). When I want to configure orca in the text modus and enter
 orca -t, I receive a couple of error messages, but the set-up is not

Re: Orca on the live CD of September 29

2007-09-30 Thread Jude DaShiell
Almost certainly a password was set up for the user account and that's 
what will need to be used with sudo to run some of that stuff.  When a 
ubuntu install happens if a root password isn't set and root isn't enabled 
then a user password will be needed or the system is as insecure as dos.

thanks a lot for your reply.

Which bugs are worked on in this regard? I only found bug #128075 that
could be connected with this.

In the beginning of October I can try and find out whether the alternate
CD works. As it probably uses the Debian installer, there should not be
any problems.

Subject: Orca and the Live CD


 Hi,

 I am interested in version 7.10 that is currently still in development
 and that is supposed to be released on October 18. Upon testing the live
 CD of September 21, I noticed that my BrlTTY Braille display was
 recognized but that the screen reader Orca could not be started. My
 brother deleted a panel applet as this caused an error. Then, I pressed
 Alt+F2 and entered orca. Nothing happened. Neither was I able to
 retrieve the Orca version via the console (Strg+Alt+F1) with the command
 orca --version. I did not receive an output and the input prompt of
 the shell was not displayed either.

 How should one proceed if one wants to try out or install the Ubuntu
 Live CD with the screen reader Orca?

 The unstable version of Debian GNU/Linux works flawlessly with Orca on
 my laptop. Therefore, I actually rule out problems with the hardware
 support of my laptop.

 Thanks in advance for your hints.

 Simon
