Re: installing vibuntu 1.2

[John Jason Jordan <johnxj comcast net>]

Vibuntu is obviously a typo for Ubuntu. The typo was probably created
by an OCR software or something like that.

Regarding Ubuntu, the first version ever released was 4.10 in October,
2004. Ubuntu names the releases according to the year and month. The
currrent release is 8.10 (October, 2008). The normal release schedule
is every six months, so the next version will be 9.04 (April, 2009). I
don't know where the original poster got "1.2."

The original poster also has a bunch of other questions that I can't
figure out, e.g., hardware synth. I'm guessing it is an incorrrect term
due to speech-to-text software that didn't capture whatever the
original poster said for "synth." Perhaps spelling it out would make it
clearer.

I would suggest that the original poster go to the ubuntu forums, which
are here:

And I would especially recommend the forum titled "Assistive Technology
and Accessibility" which you can find here:

Looking at the above forum I see lots of posts from blind users.
