Re: archlinux gnome and orca package

I think I understand. I never run speakup in a gnome-terminal session, never thought it would make sense, but I do work as the same user in the text terminals as with the gui. None too sure I want to change that, but I should give it a look.

Sorry if this sounds like a weird question, but what do you mean by,
"2:  I never try to use speakup and orca in the same session."?  Do
you mean that during a period when you're using orca, you never use
speakup in a text terminal, and that when you're using speakup you do
not use the gui?  Thanks!

 for what its worth, I use archLinux on all my systems, and I use orca
 with gnome and gdm.
 I have never had sound problems, and I use speakup as well.
 I also have never disabled pulse.
 I follow these simple rules:
 1:  I use one user specifically for graphical use.
 2:  I never try to use speakup and orca in the same session.
 This seems to work for me and I just don't have problems with it.
