re: xclip problem

[Jude DaShiell]

I've given up on xclip.  I tried exporting that DISPLAY value and others 
and each time that crashed dropboxd when I tried running it in 
/home/jude/.dropbox-dist/ as a test to be sure the display was found.
The closest I ever got to a dropbox login without copying that url and 
running it from a javascript-enabled browser was after I installed 
dropbox and ran itfrom applications internet dropbox and that login 
didn't work either.  Apparently that crashes orca sometimes but one time 
I did a run I found circles in the email and password fields for logging 
onto the site.  Lots of ajax on that page too.  I'm going to start 
trying things with the dropbox clones since this is going nowhere and 
with one of those clones I may be able to link my google drive account 
and if that happens I can do without dropbox it is too much trouble just 
doing the basic things!

In order to find my DISPLAY I started up x, then ran mate-terminal and typed 
echo $DISPLAY >dn.txt.  Then I powered down and started up in console mode 
and found :0.0 in dn.txt.  If I didn't do this right, I'll know shortly.

I don't yet know if the force worked or not.  With both commands an 
error message to the effect cannot open DISPLAY :0 was returned.  I have 
mate running on this system if it helps too.

You can force display:

DISPLAY=:0 xclip -o
echo foo | DISPLAY=:0 xclip -i

xclip problem

[Jude DaShiell]

When I use xclip it's with speakup running not orca so no display exists. 
Unfortunately xclip cannot handle a run without a display being set.  I 
tried copying a link in speakup with xclip so I could run it in firefox 
with orca and link my computer to my dropbox account but that's not 
possible.  Any other approaches to this where I could get a display set or 
find a better utility than xclip to get this done?

Re: Debian Official Live DVD and Orca problem

The Debian Live DVD is not really maintained. If you want to use a live 
image of a GNU/Linux distribution you should use Ubuntu Mate where the 
keyboard shortcut works.


Best regards.
