Hi, I am trying to make the live debian images with the installer
accessible so blind users can put one of the live discs into their
drives and test out debian either console and or one of the desktop
Oh! Excellent news! Many thanks! I've waited for this for a long.
images. I am sending this message to both the debian-accessibilityand
the debian-live lists so people can give their input. Having the images
beep at the boot prompt as the stable images do and adding a boot option
like "s" for speech would be very helpful as when I was wanting to try
out pure debian I had no way to do so before I installed it. What would
it take for you to add espeakup and or orca to the live images as some
users don't need or want a desktop just a command line but want to be
able to install the live disc on their system if they like what it does
for them? Nick Gawronski
Actuallx on Gnome DVD, Orca may be installed. It should be also on MATE,
lxde, xfce DVDs. Less useful for KDE as not accessible at all.
The thing is that the live should include brltty and, indeed, a key to
enable speakup just like the installer does.
So yes, beep and "s" is a good idea. This "s" should also enable Orca
automatically at boot of the DE.
About the install process, it means that running it from the desktop
should, if Orca is enabled, run the text one. If braille is enabled,
ncurses one should be run. Otherwise, the classical graphical one, which
is not accessible today.
Hypra tried making a kind of accessible DVD with Debian, MATE, Compiz,
Orca, and brltty. But we don't use it so much, because a lot of random
bugs at boot, language keyboard problems, sometimes the screen reader
doesn't start, etc. If it can help to 9ork:
