What distros do you know of that have ready to go images for Vmware?

Then install the screen reader. Other people have been encountering problems with Speakup and recent kernels I’m not aware of a solution. My own pragmatic response, some time ago, was to move beyond Speakup by switching to Fenrir.

Sometimes I can get most of the way through the process and others I cannot.

There’s already an Arch Linux package in the Arch User Repository. I don’t know the status on other distributions. Once it’s running, though, it works well in my experience.

This has been an issue that I’ve seen for quite some time, and it is now really starting to becoming annoying with newer versions of Linux? If I use Linux version with out Speakup everything runs just fine. For the time being what I do is run Debian 8 with Speakup and then ssh into the other Linux machines I need to use. Using Debian 8 as my work station machine isn’t something I’d like to do much longer unless I have too! Thanks for any tips you guys might have… Tom -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
