Hi, Most of the time the accessibility stuff is just built in. For example, in Ubuntu, I just press alt+f2, type orca, and it starts talking. Most distros should be the same, if they have the accessibility things, which means using Gnome. XCE and KDE will not work. You can set up a keyboard shortcut to launch Orca with a program called xbindkeys. Orca is basically an all purpose accessibility tool It does speech, magnification, and braille. When using Evolution, it is necessary to activate the view menu with alt+v and check the use carrate navigation option. HTH
