Hello you all,
Unfortunately you need X to be able to use the at-spi. THe registry for
instance depends on the availability of X. Same with the bridge. For
embedded, there are smaller versions of X designed to run on smaller
devices. The real problem in embedded is the heavy load that ORBit adds
to an already constrained environment.
