Re: [orca-list] jenux probably better alternative to manjaro talking

[Jude DaShiell <jdashiel panix com>]

Some things got changed since last I installed this.
First, when you hear a beep for boot, either hit f2 or f9 or f11 or f12 or
escape t6o get into the boot menu.  That's machine-dependent.
This wasn't even necessary the last time I did this.
One article talked about installing kde which is construction zone
accessible  "Hard Hats worn beyond this point".  I don't know if other
desktops can be installed though that was possible in the past when I
installed gnome.
I did not manage to get orca talking yet, maybe this will use ktts or
kmouth.  It's also possible that all of the accessibility stuff has been
stripped out of tumbleweed.
I'm going to try boot options then try bringing up speech and will let you
know what happens on this end.  I recommend holding off on this distro for
the time being.  If I get a way in, maybe you'll be able to follow.
