Hi all, My name is Simon and i am from Austria. I am new to this list and Trisquel. I used Linux before in other distributions like Ubuntu and Debian.
As a blind user I tested the Trisquel 5.5 I18N daily snapshot DVD from 17 March 2012 on a VirtualBox virtual machine.
I thought i might not activate the 3d video acceleration in the VM cause this often causes the system to switch to a different interface which is often not that accessible.
Starting the system from the live DVD and then installing was no problem cause Orca comes up talking automatically and also the installation was quite standard so I have no comments about that.
After the installation was complete and i started the system i found out that the login screen is not talking but that seems also to be the case currently in Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04. After the desktop was up and running i checked the whole system and figured out that the system is, since i didn't enable 3d, using gnome-classic as the interface which is using the gnome 2.x interface. So that was accessible. I looked further to the system settings and figured out that the language support section seems to be inaccessible to orca. That might be a permissions problem i guess but i am not sure.
I need to do further testing but thats what i found out so far in my first minutes using Trisquel.
Greetings, Simon
