Re: [orca-list] talking gdm with orca in fedora



I can't locate that page any more.  It's possible though that it got 
incorporated into the linux foundation home page since that page has a 
kickstart forum on it though.

What's the website?  Come on.  That was quite a teaser.

Those scripts were known as kickstart scripts before they were renamed to
anaconda-ks scripts.  There is a kickstart foundation web page that supports
kickstart for automating any and all technology architectures it can
possibly automate.  One time I used a script stored on another web page to
successfuly install a version of Ubuntu on a machine I have so even that is
possible.  What I'd like to know though are the details for setting up and
then invoking a kickstart script from a floppy disk though.  I could have
lots of fun with that.

Probably a lot of sysadmin tasks can be done from a console or over 
ssh, though you might need to install a console screen reader yourself 
if you wanted that. And RHEL is GNOME-based, so Orca should run on it 
as long as it isn't some ancient version of RHEL. I don't know if 
installation would be accessible; you might want to look into trying 
to automate it if you needed to do installs.

Hi Alex,

Yeah, I don't know where they got their data. Its true in the 
desktop/PC market Ubuntu is one of the leading distributions for 
home users. However, for large scale networks, enterprise solutions, 
I believe Red Hat Enterprise is definitely the recognized leader. On 
almost every server I've encountered or happen to use in the last 
five years or so are almost exclusively Red Hat Enterprise. In fact, 
the server I use for my website etc is running REL on it although 
since I am not the administrator of that system my use is strictly 
as a user via ssh connection rather than as an admin.

However, like you said if you look on monster.com or some place for 
jobs most of the time they want someone with experience on REL. I 
just looked into a job a year back which was for AOL. They wanted 
someone with experience with Red Hat Enterprise, Java programming, 
and experience with MySQL databases. I certainly was qualified for 
the Java and MySQL part of the application, but as for Red Hat 
Enterprise I don't know that much about it. Especially, the degree 
of accessibility it does or does not currently have for VI Linux users.
My guess is its probably pretty low on their list of priorities.
