Hi Prateek, Your first step should be to find out which linux distrobution system you need to work with.
If it is indeed yubuntu, then you can work with the open source screen reader orca. But, if you work with any of these distros, then you need to use emacspeak. • Debian Linux • Mandrake Linux • Red Hat Linux • Slackware Linux • SuSE Linux • TurboLinux Block Quote Start Emacspeak is a speech interface that allows visually impaired users to interact independently and efficiently with the computer. Audio formatting --a technique pioneered by AsTeR -- and full support for W3C's Aural CSS (ACSS) allows Emacspeak to produce rich aural presentations of electronic information. By seamlessly blending all aspects of the Internet such as Web-surfing and messaging, Emacspeak speech-enables local and remote information via a consistent and well-integrated user interface. Available free of cost on the Internet, Emacspeak has dramatically changed how the author and hundreds of blind and visually impaired users around the world interact with the personal computer and the Internet. A rich suite of task-oriented tools provides efficient speech-enabled access to the audio desktop and evolving semantic WWW. When combined with Linux running on low-cost PC hardware, Emacspeak/Linux provides a reliable, stable speech-friendly solution that opens up the Internet to visually impaired users around the world. Block Quote End I dont know if there are any blind professionals for linux in India, but you can join the blind linux mailing list to clarify your doubts.
