Vinux CLI 2.1: dna, std and max editions!
I am happy to announce the release of Vinux CLI 2.1 which is now available in three different versions: The 'dna' version is a minimal Debian system which only has five additional applications installed: the speakup screenreader the remastersys installer, the wodim iso burning tool and the aptitude package manager. It weighs in at just under 200MB and is aimed at advanced users who want to build their own customised installation and/or distribution from scratch. The 'std' version is a standard Vinux CLI system with a range of basic desktop applcations including the lynx internet browser, the nano text editor, the mutt e-mail client, the midnight commander file manager and the pdmenu application launcher. This is just under 400MB in size and is aimed at intermediate users who may want to customise the standard version by adding extra applications. The 'max' version is a full CD's worth on command line applications containing as many useful desktop tools and utiliies that I could find in the Debian repositories. This aimed at users who want a ready made CLI system with all the bells and whistles! Both the 'std' and max' editions have the Vinux single character command aliases and a menu system which allows uers to browse and run installed applications. Entering 'm' will open the menu, entering 'h' will bring up a help file which lists all of the keyboard shortcuts and installed applications. These new versions were all built with the new Vinux build script which is included in the /root folder of each edition. You can use this to install pre-selected suites of applications or modify it to build your own customised system. This is also available as a seperate download if you want to modify an existing version of Debian.

No need to remove .pulse in karmic
Hello all, Can anyone else confirm that, in order to have volume control, sound preferences, etc you just need to edit the client.conf file in .pulse and change "autospawn = no" to yes? Removing the .pulse directory seems to just make pulseaudio assume the default option of "autospawn = yes" (see /etc/pulse/client.conf), and in fact you can just remove the client,conf file and leave the rest. Pulse seems to be stopping after gnome starts, because I only see the pulseaudio process if "autospawn" is yes, and this is why there's no volume control (in the panel and totem), the sound preferences hangs waiting for the sound system, etc Am I right, or should I stop sipping the Port wine? ;-) Regards, André -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

Try the folowing first: edit the file client.conf in the .pulse directory (inside your home directory) and change "autospawn = no" to yes. Logout and login again and volume control, sound preferences, etc should work.
