Re: building a custon talking debian installation image with build essential and other packages on the disc as well as the mate accessible desktop

2020-04-27 Thread Nick Gawronski
Hi, I agree as most hardware now requires firmware to use.  Is there a 
document on how to remaster and add packages to the disc either for 
download or as normal debs that are on the disc?  Nick Gawronski

Nick,
Please use the non free images because many blind people are connecting by 
Wi-Fi and the drivers are only on the non free images. Also add the Unofficial 
multimedia sources so blind people can use
the non free codecs.

It takes a lot of work to make Debian normal.

But Debian still is the best, I just wish they'd stop the non free prohibition 
and put printer and multimedia and Firefox in their ISO.

Best wishes,

David

Re: What do you think of TeamViewer?

My sighted tech uses TeamViewer to help me remotely. It's accessible to him. 
That's all that counts, but I'm concerned about its stability.

Is any version of team-viewer sufficiently accessible to allow a
connecting computer to do remote maintenance on a target computer, or is
even that level of required accessibility insufficient?

Re: What do you think of TeamViewer?

Hello John,

Currently TeamViewer for Linux is not correctly accessible. A workaround 
to make it working is to use the ocrdesktop but it is not available on 
the Debian repository.


On my company we use our own solution based on SSH and VNC.

Best regards.

Hello,

I am working with a local tech on installing a desktop. He installed TeamViewer 
so he could help me remotely. What have been your experiences with this 
software?
Can it be run in the background? My experience is that it has made things 
worse. My tech can remote in and run Gnome, but I can't run it from the 
keyboard. That
hss hapened before - with NVDA on Windows 10.

Thanks,
John

Indeed, Wine doesn't come with SAPI. You can install it from 
command-line. The steps are:

1) Install the wine32 and winetricks packages

2) Install SAPI with the following command:
winetricks -q speechsdk
