Re: [orca-list] Which flavor of Debian for Orca

[Dave Hunt <ka1cey gmail com>]

Have you considered Trisquel GNU/Linux?  Have a look at 
http://trisquel.info.  If interested in trying an accessible live cd, be 
sure you download the I18N DVD edition.  Once booted, this session will 
come up talking with orca.  You will have a fully-functional system, 
that you may install or continue to use from your installation media (e. 
g. flash drive).  In Trisquel5.5, you get Gnome 3.2 (in the classic 
mode), and a bunch of popular apps, like Mozilla web browser, Pidgin 
messaging, Libre Office, Exaile music player, and more.  I suggest you 
install Thunderbird for mail; the default (evolution) does not play well 
 with orca.  Trisquel is a Debian-based distro (Ubuntu 11.10 
derivative), so, apt-get, and friends, are there for your use.



Cheers,
