Re: Strange behaviour with orca

[Dave Hunt <ka1cey@gmail.com>]

I experience this sort of thing whenever I use GNOME 3.4.2 on this 
netbook that has an Atom cpu.  In my case, it's a crash of at-spi2-core. 
 earlier and later GNOME releases do not exhibit this behavior.

What GNOME version are you using on what processor?

You can get functionality back by logging out and back in, or by 
restarting the system; That is, assuming your issue is same as mine.
