I am using a x windows screen reader with the gnome desktop.

XMMS can bve launched through the file browsers also. I have launched it through nautilus and through the norton commander like program called Midnight commander.


The last time I ran winamp through wine, it was one of the 7.x distributions.

If you want wine emulation through Red Hat 9, I believe wine is still busted. (related to standardization with RH 9 to POSIX standards)

I'm not familiar with screen reader programs. I am curious to how well the programs work. I have a few friends that are still on windows. They use JAWS or programs of that nature.

It might be better to put in a feature request for xmms to be screen reader compatible. You might put the request into Red Hat's feature request for program improvements. The xmms developers might aid in getting it to work also.

There is a limitation with the default installation of xmms. It does not include an mp3 decoder. You might have to get the plugin, when you file a feature request for xmms. They have the needed mp3 plugin.

I hope the next version of Red Hat includes a lot of screen reader capabilities with the programs.
