Dear syr,
MR Klaus Knopper have made complex programmers changes, he must set some
variables to enable Orca to work with LXDE, he must created special script
for starting Orca with LXDE. But LXDE is slover than XFCE, probably core
developers of XFCE are using better programmers algorithms, because not
every application, which has been completely written by using C programming
language must be very fast. The state art of programmers work will be The
most important aspect of optimal performance of every application.
Why i would like to use Xfce with Orca?
Because XFCE is really faster than LXDE and i do not think, that it is
wrong to enable visually impaired users of Linux to use so many GTK based
desktop environments with Orca or other at-spi compatible assistive
technology as possible.
I will try to do it myself, it is fortunately not illegal to try to think
about new approaches. I discussed my pleasment with developers of XFCE, but
when i tried to create The gtkrc-2.0 file, it never helped me.
I tried it with Mandriva One with XFCE, and i AM sure, that i created good
gtkrc-2.0 file. I will try to study programmers documentation for XFCE and i
will try to analyse the XFCE source code, it will not be easy for me,
because it is really programmed in C programming language, but if somebody
want to make somethink new, it will always require deep thinkink. And why I
AM using PCLINUXOSS?
1. Not only visually impaired user is having full freedom to login to Gnome
as a root user
2. Applications which are executed as a root user will be accessible, i AM
using PCLINUXOSS as a root user and eventhough many of thus will probably
think about me, that i AM crazy, i really do not think, that The Internet is
full of specialized viruses, which will attack every computer, which is
connected to The internet and if no WEB browser or E-mail client is being
active.
3. PCLINUXOSS is packaged with Adobe flash player
4. The gecko-media-player plugin is integrated very good with Mozilla
Firefox if user will install gecko-media-player with The Synaptic package
manager.
Even Mandriva One is not able to provide this ammazing automatic integration
even after performing installation of this plugin.
5. PCLINUXOSS is coming bundled with all modules for playing DVDS, and
Gnome-mplayer can be used for playing DVDS without need to download some
codecs from The Internet.
6. PCLINUXOSS can be safely installed even from Windows operating system to
The USB flash drive and even persistent mode is awailable.
So i think, that this operating system is really not bad distribution,
there are only some complex programmers issues.
And i have forgot, that there is professional PCLINUXOSS magazine, which can
be read free of charge on The Internet, online or by downloading The
magazine in The .pdf format.
And Openoffice oRG 3.1.1 can be downloaded and installed without need to
install openoffice-gnome support separately, professional script will
download The latest version of Openoffice with Gnome for You.
PCLINUXOSS is i think one of The good Linux distribution, which is enabling
visually impaired and other users, who are dependent on at-spi compatible
assistive technology to work with The operating system, which can enable
users to work with their computers in The multimedia world.
This is my personal opinion and ofcourse, every body on this mailing list
have full free dom and full right to disagree with me. I AM also very well
aware, that there are some issues related to Orca and Brltty support, and
that it is not always possible to use operating system as a root user, in
The companyes, which are require high security standarts. But i think, that
this distribution would be good for users, who would use their computers at
home, for users, who would like to listen Internet radio stations, live TV
on The Internet, for users, who would want to watch various films stored on
DVDS.
