re: debian stretch testing findings
I was able to install debian-stretch-testing using the 3.5MM jack standard
speaker set connected to my computer and speakup came up talking
post-install. I put mate on that installation too and failed to get a
wifi network setup working using command line instructions and
wpa_passphrase to add to wpa_supplicant.conf. I got a start job is
running related to bringing up the network after trying that. While
inside mate, screen reader only works for user accounts and I need talking
root access to configure the network using mate. Since debian does not
save any detected network configuration files so far as I can tell during
installation one almost has to do the network configuration post-install.
When I tried that install of mini.iso earlier I didn't change priority
notifications from medium to low so if a kernel was installed I didn't
hear any choices for it.
I'll try what I did in sonar with debian and see if I can get root access
that way.
If I remember properly I logged in as user; got a terminal, used su - in
terminal and entered root password. Then hit control-alt-tab and got the
top bar menu and went from there into internet and configured wifi
network.
Now I'm going to clear the junk I created with the command line failure so
I start from a known state when I try this next procedure.
