Hi again,
It's a long standing problem. Some of the admin applications like
synaptic use a program called gksu to prompt you for your password if
they need to run as root. But the program causes Orca to go silent
after the password has been entered.
To get around this run the program from gnome-terminal.
So to run synaptic type
sudo synaptic

I was trying to use the synaptic package manager with Orca.
I open this, I'm prompted to enter my root password to gain permission.
As soon as I click OK, Orca goes silent.
Is there some way to configure Orca to work with these admin applications?
Thanks.
