If you had the problem of no sound after installing Vinux 3.0.1, here is a
solution.

you can restore sound by waiting until the system has fully booted then
pressing ctrl+alt+t to open a terminal, and

then typing the following commands exactly as written:

sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio  reload

then press ctrl+alt+o to reload Orca.

Then if you're not using a live cd/dvd and would like to make the change
permanent, alt tab back to the terminal and run:

sudo gedit /etc/init.d/pulseaudio

Scroll down and change 'sleep 4' to 'sleep 12' on line 39 then save this
file. Next time you restart, the sound should be fine.

[Blind-Computing] Using Jaws on an onboard soundcard

2011-02-03 Thread Don Risavy, Jr.
Hello all,

 

I have two soundcards one being a Creative labs X-FI and one being an
onboard RealTech.

 

I want to be able to use Jaws on the onboard RealTech soundcard and leave
the Creative labs X-FI for all my audio playback and recording.

 

When I check the soundcard options within Win7 Ultimate 32 both soundcards
show they are enabled and in use which is definitely the case as all the
sounds switch from my X-FI with the speakers connected and turned on which
is my default soundcard to the RealTech.

 

So needed to know and or find out do I need to disable the RealTech
soundcard so this doesn't happen when plug in my extra speakers have to use
on that card and if so will that stop the problem from occurring where the
RealTech soundcard becomes the main or default source which happens when
plug the other speakers into the onboard soundcard with the main speakers
still hooked up to and connected and turned on for the X-FI.

 

So hope made some since of the situation so someone can possibly help and or
assist me with this matter and or issue.

 

Thanks.

I just received my Coby MP200 MP3 player from JR, and it is truly simple
and totally blind accessible.  On top of the unit is the earphone jack into
which you plug the included earbuds.  The front panel has 5 discrete buttons
arranged in a vertical column.  From top to bottom, the buttons are skip
forward, play/pause/power, skip backward, volume up and volume down.
Pressing and holding the second button from the top for 5 seconds turns the
unit on, and pressing and holding it again for 5 seconds turns it off.
That's all there is to it.  The bottom of the unit has a USB connector that
plugs directly into a USB port, although a separate USB cable is also
included.  You just plug it into your PC and copy and paste the MP3 files
you want to download.  Just install the included AAA battery and you're good
to go.  The sound quality is surprisingly good, at least using a better pair
of earbuds than the included ones.  There is absolutely no learning curve,
and no sighted assistance is required to use it.  The included software,
which I have not tried yet, is fully JAWS accessible.  With 2gb of memory,
it can hold up to 1,000 songs.  This is probably the best blind accessible
MP3 deal ever.  It is still available from JR for $10 with free shipping,
but they probably won't last much longer at that price.  They make wonderful
stocking stuffers.  The hardest part of using this gizmo is getting it out
of the plastic blister pack which requires a heavy duty scissors to cut
open.

Hi,

I use Norton 360 for the last 10 months.

I first used Norton 360 version 2 for several months, and now Norton 360 
version 3 for several months.

I was able to install the package by myself.  It is quite easy and very 
fast.

Although Norton 360 is not the most JAWS friendly, I can use it without 
major problems.  I often need to use the JAWS cursor, and learned a few 
thing by trial and error, but I believe that it works very well and I am 
pleased from the software.

Most actions are done automatically, but if you want to perform some of the 
functions, most of them are available on the system tray, and it is very 
easy to make them run.

 hello group.
 I bought a version of Office 2003 that I thought was genuine.  But now, 
 Microsoft Advantage is telling me that it isn't a genuine copy.  does 
 anyone know where I can find Office 2003 or even Word 2003.  I don't like

 I'd like to buy it legally.  But I have no idea where something like that

Re: [Blind-Computing] Upgrading to Windows 7

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Upgrading to Windows 7

Hello all,
First of all, this e-mail is not to flame anybody, nor is it designed to 
name and shame people. However, after what I've read that Netbooks with 
Windows XP can't be upgraded to Windows 7, this is completely false. All 
machines that are running either Windows XP or Vista can be upgraded to 7. 
The difference here is that no XP edition supports in-place upgrades, 
meaning that a clean install is required. You can still use your upgrade DVD

to perform the clean install though since XP would be recognized by the DVD,

thus you can go ahead with the clean install. With Vista, however, the 
upgrade path depends on what Vista edition you're currently using. Here's 
the upgrade paths you can follow:
Vista Home Premium -7 Home Premium
Vista Business -7 Professional
Vista Ultimate -7 Ultimate
Other editions of Vista, like Home Basic, are not supported, and thus no 
upgrade path exists. There's also no upgrade path if you wish to upgrade 
from a 32-bit edition of Windows Vista to a 64-bit edition of Windows 7. In 
both cases a clean install is required, however the upgrade DVD will work 
for this since Vista will be recognized by the DVD.
What I will say though is that it's completely your choice if you decide to 
cancel your licence, but I thought I'd better get this out there for fear of

misinformation.
So hope this all helps and it clears things.
Have a good day.

If you do the first part of the installation inside Windows, regardless of 
upgrade or full, your screen reader will walk you through it all. When it 
reboots the rest of it will be automated till it's ready for you to set it 
up. You should then be able to launch Narrator with Windows U, Alt N, to 
complete the setup. Hope this helps.

[Blind-Computing] Jaws 10.0 startup problems

2009-04-03 Thread Don Risavy, Jr.
Hello,

 

Wondered if anyone has ever run into or have run into problems with the Jaws
10.0.1142 startup when first boot up the computer or log on to windows xp
pro?

 

What seems to be happening with me is that once run the Jaws startup wizard
and set all the settings per my use and or liking then when either log off
my windows xp pro Jaws will default back to the default settings and the
speech is very slow at the default setting that it is at when first install
Jaws as was when first installed.  Then the startup wizard begins all over
again.  If don't have to log off or restart the computer things are fine;
but, once do have to restart or log off the computer then loose all the
settings previously set during the startup wizard and have to begin again.

 

If I only install and use the Jaws 10.0installation cd that shipped when
Jaws came out things work just fine; but, when upgrade to Jaws 10.0.1142
that's when things seem to go nuts.

 

So just thought would throw this out to see if anyone had any suggestions or
had run into the problem too.

 

I've even completely uninstall Jaws and started all over again with the sma
Jaws 10.0 cd that was shipped and again things work fine as long as don't
install the upgrade.

 

Thanks.

of Jaws 10?  I tried using the Jaws 10.0 cd and that didn't work as told me
already had a previous version of jaws installed and needed to uninstall the
previous version prior to continuing.  So didn't know if there was a way to
repair the installation of Jaws 10?

 

Thanks.

[Blind-Computing] Types of DVD media

2008-11-21 Thread Don Risavy, Jr.
Hello,

 

Hope this isn't to off topic; but, wondered which of the DVD media formats
are the best or most recognized +r or -r and which one plays better on most
home DVD players?

 

Thanks.

This is excellent stuff Jason.  I recommend that anyone save this entire 
page for later reference.  It is the most comprehensive set of tools I have 
seen yet for working with Outlook Express problems.

CAUTION:

Some of the processes outlined here are extremely dangerous to the health of

your Outlook Express program.  They should only be used in an emergency and 
the cautions imbedded in these directions should not be taken lightly.

What could happen?

The worst would be the complete failure of Outlook Express.  The solution of

course would be to re-load the entire Internet Explorer program including 
Outlook Express.

Thanks again Jason for a really fine piece of information.

 I'm pretty certain there are a lot of us blindies who use O E on a 
 permanent basis for email.
 Well, O E really has some shady and important things you need
 to know about it if you don't want an y of the following to happen:
 inbox disappears,
 folder structure gets damaged,
 sluggish performance (unlike the way it was when you first started using 
 it),
 message rules stop working,
 special folders stop being special,
 and more.
 Note to author here:
 Make sure to tell all users of outlook express not just to bookmark or 
 save, but read the following web page, in its entirety:
 http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/community/columns/filecorruption.mspx
 I hope this enlightens everyone on the show as the outlook express 
 turns, lol.
 On tomorrow's episode, well, i don't know what will be on, I'll just play 
 it by ear, rofl!
