Re: orca-compatible display managers

With gdm and lightdm both are triggered by sudo -H systemctl enable gdm or sudo -H systemctl enable lightdm. When these break though that talkingarch install disk is real useful as a rescue disk to run systemctl disable commands on those display managers. I found gdm better able to work with orca but the desktop interface is different from mate and none too easy to bring up a list of apps.

Hello,

I think you need tofollow these instructions

http://wiki.vinuxproject.org/mate_install

I've installed mate on my arch machine a few times and everything works.

The login manager... Well you'd probably have to set it to auto log unless your using gdm.

I found xorg when it works to work well. A debian system with xorg and mate on it is where it runs very well. A modified talkingarchlinux system xorg does not work I think my nvidia CK-804 card is too old for it. The talkingarchlinux system has mate and mate-extra installed on it along with speech-dispatcher-git and this is what I find strange. If I run yelp which is the mate help system that talks. If I try alt-f1 or alt-f2 those don't talk and neither does alt-control-tab. I installed orca with all dependencies on talkingarchlinux system so this shouldn't be happening unless I need to find a replacement for xorg. Some replacements do exist it's just a matter of selecting the correct one.
