Yes, your right that is the problem. Thanks very much! A reinstall of
atspi2-core did the fix.

Probably, but it's a bit of trouble every time I need to rebuild.
The easiest solution for now seemed to be installing brltty to a custom
directory as described in the manual, and now everything seems to be
working.
I now have one last problem, orca seems to just say "inaccessible" for
iceweasel/firefox. Other applications like openoffice.org work.
Also, initially I could not access any of the gnome menus, but I can
now. Does this mean I've successfully disabled gnome-shell? I've read
about how inaccessible it is and now seen it first hand :)
Thanks for your help,
Dan
