Christopher,
I haven't changed anything.  This is escentially the live CD.  I am
attempting to install Ubuntu at this point.
I launched Orca by pressing alt f2 then typing orca.

Milton, how did you install Ubuntu 16.04?  The installation doesn't seem to
be accessible to me at the moment?

My appologies.  I'm out of the game for a while.  I'm sure a lot has
changed.  I had expected that at minimum I'd be able to boot to a live
desktop and hit the installer.

If there is some documentation I should read, by all means point me in the
right direction please.

Thanks

Vinux is still being developed, and Vinux 5, based on Ubuntu 14.04, was
released a while ago. I can't say which distribution is best, although I use
Vinux and Ubuntu myself.

What have you tried to do to get Orca running on Ubuntu 16.04? Have you
tried the hot key sequence alt+super+s yet? Also, what desktop are you
using, e.g. the default Unity?

I've  just downloaded and run Ubuntu 16 but Orca isn't speaking the
desktop. I assume this is just a minor issue with the default
configuration of Gnome on Ubuntu 16.

I have been using the console only for the past few years but need to
get back to the GUI.

Am I better off sticking with Ubuntu? Or is there something better out
there?  I have experience with both deb and RPM based distributions so
I am reasonably flexable.

Is Vinux still in development?

I played with Sonar a year ago or so but for some reason, it didn't
really appeal to me.

Suggestions very welcome.
