Hi,

hi there, i'm visually impared and wanted to try out opensuse-tumbleweed, I downloaded the gnome-live iso and booted from it hopeing that I would be able to launch the screen reader gnome-orca. I pressed alt plus windows key plus s to launch orca, no reaction was given, e.g there was no sound. could someone tell me if gnome-orca, speech-dispatcher, and espeak-ng are installed on the live-iso?

No, they were explicitly removed due to space constraints. I remember that we had this same discussion almost exactly one year ago: https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2018-07/msg00165.html

if not could these packages be added and enabled?

I built an iso image with orca removed from the blacklist and it seems to fit now. While I could not activate it with the combination you mentioned, it seems to work after enabling it manually in the settings dialog, logging out and back in again. Performing the installation with screen reading will most likely not work as screen reading applications running as root is not directly possible. Also, YaST is currently not optimized for that purpose. You can download the iso here: https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/favogt:/branches:/openSUSE:... If it works for you, I'll submit my changes to Tumbleweed and maybe also Leap. Cheers, Fabian

if they are not then I will not be able to try out open-suse. the non-live image does not speak i'm speaking of the big dvd image. thanks for reading! Majid Hussain
