Bug Description
In testing the recent pre-RC daylies (20060523/24) I see that the gnopernicus screen reader does not start in speaking mode after gooting with the Blindness F5 option. The settings panel in gnopernicus claims that speech is 'unavailable'.
However, everything is installed and configured as it should be. And when you log out and back in gnopernicus does indeed come up speaking as it should. I don't know the technical details, but I'm suspecting that some sort of boot optimisation cause things to be started in the wrong order which results in gnopernicus failing to find the speech infrastructure.
Luke claims that gnopernicus perfers to launch festival itself. The screen reader works fine on installed desktops.
It works for me now, and Luke confirms that it works for him as well. Closing.
