Re: [orca-list] Can't get Orca start in a graphical environment started

Hello,

Okay, now I have looked over some old messages and I have some more ideas.

Lightdm really should start at-spi2 when it's configured with accessibility. It does it on my arch linux machine where I'm running lightdm for more than a year now.

I do have these two options inside /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf

[greeter]
a11y-states=reader
reader=orca

when greeter session closes at-spi is killed by the gtk greeter. I am specifically handling this situation in that patch which has been committed into gtk-greeter 2.0.3 release.

However I am unable to get lightdm working on slint at all. I have installed pam, lightdm and lightdm-gtk-greeter by using installpkg.

This is what I'm getting when launching it... Should I add accounts service or logind into the mix somewhere?

** (lightdm:1204): WARNING **: Failed to get list of logind seats: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.login1 was not provided by any .service files

I forgot this: pam is not officially shipped in Slint yet, but you will find
a package here:
http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-testing/source/pam/
that you can install with installpkg /path/to/pam-1.2.1-x86_64-1slint.txz
or spkg -i /path/to/pam-1.2.1-x86_64-1slint.txz
If you want to install lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings you will need also
as dep python3-distutils-extra available here:
http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-testing/source/python3-distutils-extra/
These packages are in source dirs because they are not yet released even
for testing.

All other deps should be already installed, I think.

Greetings,

Didier
