Re: [orca-list] Setting up an Arch Linux installation



Title: Assinatura Informal

I've always used the gnome and it seems like a good option.

Hello Orca users/developers,

My previous Linux laptop unfortunately suffered a hardware failure last year,
so I've been without a working desktop Linux system for a while. However, I've
just installed Arch Linux on my current laptop (dual-booting with Windows 10
for compatibility with my work environment). The ISO image announced on the
list recently worked perfectly.

I have a working text-based installation with BRLTTY and Speakup running.
Fenrir is installed, but I haven't yet configured it. The next stage is to set
up a graphical environment as well. There have been changes to Linux desktops
in recent years, including Wayland, and the recent Pipewire audio/video
routing system that may not be ready for general use yet, but which looks
promising for moving sound to the correct device under various scenarios.

In any case, what would be a recommended installation at the moment by way of
a desktop environment and supporting infrastructure?

I'm also interested in Chromium accessibility, including Chromevox, so if
anyone has relevant experience with that, I would welcome suggestions. Based
on what I've read, it probablyinvolves compilation from source code, which I'm
in a position to do - or at least attempt.

The laptop has plenty of memory and a quad-core CPU, so I don't need to be
concerned about running a desktop environment designed for older or less
capable systems.
