Accessible install and Vinux?

2010-01-31 Thread Bill Cox
I think Lucid is on track to be a fabulous distro for accessibility.
I'm working on a Vinux ISO based on Ubuntu Lucid, and I'm pretty
excited about it.

However, even better than having a separate ISO would be having a
Vinux-like install option.  Is there any chance that the we Vinux guys
could work with the Luke and the Ubuntu accessibility guys on adding a
bunch of cool accessibility stuff automatically when an accessible
install is selected?  In particular, a more accessible desktop
environment (different /etc/skel), and speakup support would be a huge
improvement for an accessible install, IMO.

I'd much rather work on an accessible install for Ubuntu than a
separate Vinux/Ubuntu ISO.  Any chance this could happen?

Thanks,
Bill

Anyone know how to increase the console font size

2010-01-31 Thread Bill Cox
In Ubuntu Lucid Alpha, the fonts on the console are really tiny.  In
Karmic, they were nice and large.  Does anyone know how to modify the
console font size?

Thanks,
Bill

Hi, after updating yesterday I noticed orca doesn't speak the menus. Is this a 
known problem?
