Hello Chriss
To be honest, like you, i have been using debian on my headless
servers. i have 3 servers, and two of them are running debian.
I think debian 7.3 runs gnome 3.4.2 which is accessible out of the
box. it depends what you want to do with it daily. browsing, reading
mails, and listening to music? of course you can do it easily with
debian.
but it all depends on your usage.
p.s if you are using thunderbird, make sure you hit the "reply to
list" item, otherwise your mail goes directly to the person who's
replying you, instead of the mailinglist itself.
Cheers.

That's lovely, thank you. When Debian comes up, what is the general
state of accessibility? I mean, could a person comfortably use it in
every day situations?

Hi Chris
boot Debian OS, wait for the beep, then press S and enter. you'll
enter the Debian accessibility mode in which you can install Debian
and orca will be set for you for system start up.
for more tricks and tips and more accessibility options with java
and QT, visit Debian accessibility wiki at
https://wiki.debian.org/accessibility
which is neatly written
Cheers

Hi all,
I've been using Debian now for a while on a VPS, mainly as a
server, although I've been using things like NMap that I can only
do from Linux.
I have a few laptops lying around which I thought I might as well
do something with, so I'm wondering, is there a document somewhere
about Debian accessibility?
I hit google with the problem, and there were a few vague mentions
of a Debian accessibility movement, but no hard and fast "Here's
how you install without a screen", or docs on getting orca working
once you've installed etc.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but Google's just not playing
ball on this one!
Cheers guys, and I hope this email finds you all well.
