Re: [orca-list] which linux distro with Orca



Once that comes out, it'll be fun to work with the alpha.  I dunno when that'll be, though, so I guess I'll 
play with other stuff until then.
While I'm technically on the testing team, I can tell you that it's really quiet in my corner right now.  My 
brain needs things to do, so I'll fiddle
with Debian for a while until we have a new image for me to work with.

I'd still recommend Vinux, even after they switch over to Fedora. Knowing the
Vinux and Sonar teams, they'll put out a distribution that is both good for
the new user and saves an experienced user a lot of time.

What Linux distor would anyone suggest for someone who is 39 years old,
a medium level user of Linux which works with Orca?
I ask because I am not a Linux newby but not someone who feels they can
edit system files in order to get certain software to work.
I don't know the state of the latest Ubuntu since Luke left their
accessability team, Sonar is conbining with Vinux which are going to use
the Fedora way of doing things, a lot of which are not newby or
intermediate friendly when it comes to installing VLC etc from the brief
look I had at Fedora 21 a while ago I think, and Arch and Gentoo are to
complicated for someone like me. I read somewhere that Mint now includes
Orca or did in one version but other than that I don't know the state of
which easy to use Distros include an easy way of installing with Orca
and running it with Orca as someone who has no Sight at all and a family
who may not be as #technology savvy as me. I had to get someone outside
my family to reconfigure the boot menus on my laptop to read from a CD
on my HP laptop and I still need to find the corect key sequence to be
able to boot into Linux from a Live CD to try it with my system.
