Hi All,
First off, if you say this not accessibility
related, then screw you!
I just installed Debian, and I have to use Debian
on my Asus 701, because that is the only 32 bit Linux package I know of that is
kept up to date.
So, I guess I made the mistake in the install to
set a password for root.
I have no problems with Raspbian.
So, without TTS to tell me what is going on, I'm
trying to read the screen with the app seeing AI after each enter of the enter
key.
I have to type "clear" to not hear everything I
have done so far, all over again.
So, I see from reading on-line, that I need to use
su - instead.
I am at the Mate desktop in a
terminal.
I can backspace and hear the clunk sound, so I know
that part is good.
So, I type
su - apt install orca
and it says something about not finding
apt
I tried su - followed by enter and I think it asked
for a password, and I enter the password, and it cannot find my
username.
So, what is up with all this crap?
What am I doing wrong?
I tried to SSH into it, and it says connection
refused.
If I could SSH into it, at least I could do trial
and error until I get this odd su stuff fixed, and I can install
sudo.
Thanks for any assistance.
ugh!

Being smart is knowing how to get out of a tough
situation. Being wise is not getting into it in the first place.
