Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel 9 Graphical ISO available for testing

[dahunt]

I decided to give the new Trisquel 9 graphical live system a spin, and found  
that the orca screen reader will not start.  First, I tried waiting about 10  
minutes after boot, thinking it might start in the manner to which I'm  
accustomed in Trisquel.  When nothing seemed to happen, I ticked the volume  
controls on my keyboard, and heard the 'opop' sounds, thereby confirming that  
the audio system is working.  I typed the orca command "/usr/bin/orca  
--setup" into the 'run' dialogue, and heard nothing.  Next, I tested the tts  
system, and found that it's working.  Finally, I opened a mate terminal and  
gave the command, "which orca", and got "/usr/bin/orca", which showed that  
the binary is in the proper place.  I used the ocr feature in my smart phone  
to learn this.  Finally, I ran orca from the terminal and heard errors  
regarding something called canbera being missing, and something about unable  
to start gtk dialog without a parent. Again, using my phone's ocr features  
and tts.  BTW, this activity was all on bare metal.

Thanks,
