I have Linux Mint 17 and Mate installed on the same basis.  My husband watched 
me struggle and said "why don't you just use Debian?".  I have got Mate 
almost usable.  It is still not usable for a desktop but this is a media 
machine.  I don't think I can get it better.  So I have promised myself a 
treat.  I am going to install TDE.  I actually want to use this machine.

I don't know whether it is Linux Mint, Mate, or both that consider 
accessibility so unimportant.  I don't much mind.  I shan't use either again.  
I have done my penance!!

Would it be different from configuring Gnome in anything else?  (Genuine 
question.)
