Re: [orca-list] orca with xfce in devuan

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel panix com>]

The problem with all debian graphical installations for those of us who
cannot see the screen at all is we need to be able to adjust
accessibility for the graphical interface in the console without
complaints about missing dbus or displays!  It turns out I may be the
only one in my County using Linux of any flavor so people that can see
will be limited in effectiveness.  Fortunately next week I have a linux
using friend from another county visiting so I expect I'll be able to
get mate up and running on devuan and squared away before both of us
leave to help another blind friend living in Georgia with his computer
and linux installation.  Slint is better in this respect since I was
able to get to the graphical environment independently and I got xfce
running and xfce runs I think faster than mate.  It's easy to switch
desktop environments in slint too so my most recent try was with lxde
which also works in Slint.
