Hi,
the answers are below your questions.
I have 2 quick questions on knoppix.
1, what version of Gnome is being used with what version of ff and open office? it uses the latest version of lxde desktop which is
gtk+ based same as gnome orca ff openoffice.
it is using the latest versions of ff and
openoffice that are available.
2, which version of orca is being used in the latest beta version and the stable version? whatever the latest Ubuntu orca is, that is
what knoppix adriane uses.
having herd so much about knoppix I am interested
in trying it out provided I get to use orca with espeak.
I will post a link as soon as its available.
Happy hacking.

Subject: Knoppix 6.2.1 ADRIANE beta
Hello Josh and Mike (probably not knowing each
other yet),
Please find the current development version of
knoppix-adriane at
sorry I cannot give the url it is Klauus's own
server. If anyone has an ftp site where I can upload the knoppix-adriane beta
with latest orca and hardware
support please let me know. Changes to 6.2: - Kernel 2.6.32.2 - speechd uses libao/alsa instead of oss - ocropus ocr version 0.3 (used by adriane-ocr) - new network-manager configuration in "settings" (Internet) - general updates of Debian packages - probably more, that I forgot. ;-) Please let me know if you get along with the new
adriane network setup.
Short summary of usage of knoppix-networkmanager: The first menu displays all connections configured in /etc/network/interfaces (you may want to copy your existing /etc/network/interfaces over the almost empty version in the live system first). On top of the list is a general connection information, on bottom an entry which allows you to configure a new connection. When selecting an existing entry (if there is one), you get a menu with all configured options, and when selecting one, you can edit it. You will be asked for saving confirmation when leaving the connection editor, while renaming works without confirmation. Currently, only LAN and WLAN connections (wpa, wep or open) can be configured with this tool, the "modem" entry currently does nothing, but will also be used for broadband cable or mobile modems in later versions. With kind regards

Tired of Microsoft Windows and paying thousands for screen-readers? try out NVDA, get a mac--, nvda--for Windows, or try out and switch to grml, Ubuntu, Vinux, or knoppix-adriane Linux desktops. Knoppix ubuntu and vinux-cli-max are the most accessible for beginners. also try vinux-gui and encourage those at www.cherrypal.com to use windows-xp and nvda knoppix-adriane Vinux-cli-max or grml so all blind people can have an accessible computer.
