Hi Hermann,

Instructions for installing the Java Access Bridge for Gnome are here:

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/stable/gnome/java-access-bridge.html

Please let me know if you have any problems, and we and work through 
them.  It is important to remember that the bridge needs to be installed 
on every J2SE or J2RE that is installed on your system.  There are two 
files that need to be copied (or linked to) after you run the 
installation procedures described in the link above.  The shell 
environment variable "$JAVA_HOME" is the top-level directory where J2SE 
or J2RE is installed.

On J2SE, the files are:

$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/accessibility.properties
$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext/gnome-java-bridge.jar

On J2RE, the files do not have "jre" in the path:

$JAVA_HOME/lib/accessibility.properties
$JAVA_HOME/lib/ext/gnome-java-bridge.jar

Best regards,
Lynn
