Re: [orca-list] Elementary OS

[Didier Spaier <didier slint fr>]

I jut downloaded and installed elementary 0.4.1 in a VirtualBox VM.

That's actually a refurbished Ubuntu, lacking accessibility during installation and usage out of the box.

This is true for the default login manager and desktop Pantheon.

You have at least some a11y apps installed like gnome-orca and speech-dispatcher but you'd need to install 
and set additional components from an Ubuntu repo and replace the desktop to get accessibilty.

Not worthwhile  IMHO, better just install Ubuntu Mate directly if you like it.

There are a few specific apps, but that don't bring much added value in my opinion.

Also, they seem to provide support only on social networks or stackexchange:
https://elementaryos.stackexchange.com/

Their github main repo is:
https://github.com/elementary

If you insist, you can get it from the home page home:
https://elementary.io/
TIP: you should purchase it, but a price of 0 is allowed.

You can get it also via bittorrent, e.g. from this page:
https://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=downloadcheck&id=1f40a018f69eaabf9b05429f6d52160af4affb91
No guarantee from me.

The checksums are on this page:
