Re: Accessibility options in Debian
Thanks for the suggestions. I tried installing Orca on a Raspberry Pi
the other day, but it seemed to have trouble with the Pixel desktop. I
was a little concerned after reading that Orca is tightly integrated
with the Gnome desktop, but more recent information seems to suggest
that it can be used with Mate and even XFCE/LXDE.
I haven't been able to get the "Install with speech synthesis" option to
work at all yet, if that is the flaw you are referring to.
I have been able to get Orca working quite well on Buster Mate and am
figuring out how to change the voice to one of the FLite arctic options.
Oddly, Orca does not have an entry on the Mate start menu. Would you
recommend Gnome 3 with this tool? I prefer how light-weight Mate is and
always found Gnome 3 confusing, but I'm willing to try if it seems worth it.
Is anyone using emacspeak? This seems to be a new option that comes up a
lot, and looks similar to the Knoppix Adriane project.
Thank you,
Aaron
