Re: Orca Isn't Autostarting
Hi Jason,
Thanks, yeah, I did all that, but the odd thing is, that in "universal
access, there is no entry for the screenreader, there were two things in
there, keyboard accessibility, and I forget the other one.
Usually once it has been enabled, it always auto starts.I didn't uninstall
the Gnome Flashback, just installed mate-desktop-environment-extras.
I noticed that Mate used the Orca voice settings I set up when I was running
the Gnome Flashback.

If you start Orca at the log-in dialogue with Alt-Super-S, it should
remain running in the desktop session and persist across reboots. (I'm
using Debian Testing and GNOME, so this isn't your exact situation.)
Also, check your desktop's Accessibility settings and ensure that
"screen reader" is eanbled.
