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

[александр епанешников <aarnaarn2 gmail com>]

hello. glad that TalkingArch helpd you.

about installation. today i reinstalled arch. my recommendations.

install mate. i think it is best accessible D E. install mate and 
mate-extra i using lightdm as my greeter.

install pulseaudio and pulseaudio-alsa

because arch at the moment transitions to espeak-ng. install espeak-ng 
pkg and overwrite espeak.

don't forget to run spd-config
