Atril Document viewer and some other applications require you to enable
caret navigation. You can press the F7 key to toggle it. After that you
should be able to arrow up and down or use the 'speak entire document'
key. You can press alt-e to get to the Edit menu and try to save your

When you press the control-alt-tab and you hear it say 'top pannel',

WIFI settings.

Thanks Samuel. The ORCA Debian package only has xbrlapi as

I'm using AMD64, but sometimes I can find the PID for
pipewire-pulse with 'ps ax'. Then enter
kill -SIGHUP
Suddenly it will start working again.
It might be worth a try.

I have the AMD64 build of bookworm, but I have had it stop
speaking. Sometimes if I have a graphical session running, then switch
to a speakup console, it is very slow to respond. I wrote a simple bash

sleep 5

I start that in the terminal with ORC
Not trying to rush you Samuel, just curious.
Thanks for all your effort.

When you are at the Login screen, try pressing the F10 key to get
to the menu. Then use your arrow keys to explore the menu. I don't
have two environments installed, but mine shows Mate currently.

Yes, I use an old Alva. I upgraded from Bullseye with the package

Installing 'brltty-x11' did stop the errors. Possibly the package was
missing after I installed Bullseye, I don't know for sure.
Thanks!

I view the system log with 'journalctl -e' there are repeating errors.
Possibly it can't find yxa2.so.
See attached log.
Do others see these errors?
