Thread: orca 0.2.4 compiles, but no more




orca 0.2.4 compiles, but no more
user name
2006-05-22 14:38:56
Hi,
I am now in a posision where I can compile orca either from
the sources of 
2.0.4 or from the latest CVS.
Once installed, I run as a normal user:
orca -t
and get "Welcome to Orca setup" on the screen
and spoken through I suppose 
gnome-speech.
That is that though. I seem to have to kill orca to get out
of there.
It is quite possible that there mighht be remains left of an
old orca 
install.
Have anyone gotten this problem and or solved it?
TIA Willem

Hmm...something is going awry here.  What should be
happening is that
you get output like the following in the terminal where you
started
orca, and the output is also spoken:

Select desired speech server.
1. Fonix DECtalk GNOME Speech Driver
2. Festival GNOME Speech Driver
Enter choice: 2
Enable echo by word?  Enter y or n: n
Enable key echo?  Enter y or n: n
Enable Braille?  Enter y or n: n
Enable Braille Monitor?  Enter y or n: n
Setup complete.  Press Return to continue.

I'm not sure what might be happening.  Can you try to do a
"ps -elf" and
grep for both "orca" and
"synthesis-driver"?  I'm curious if some stale
things might be hanging around.  In addition, are you
running as a
"regular" user or as root?  If you're running
as a "regular" user, do
you have any applications running as root on your display?

After a reboot, I logged in as user willem.
Then I ran orca -t
with the described result.
Under a second terminal, (X not running),
I ran ps -elf as requested and get two gnome-speech
synthesys drivers as 
expected, one for speech-dispatcher and one for Festival.
There is also just the orca -t running when I check for
that.
IE. no other processes containing orca.
If it helps any, when it says "Welcome to Orca
setup", it does it in the 
voice that used to be sellected.  That is the
speech-dispatcher driver's 
voice.
TIA, Willem
