Re: ubuntu server
That's right, everyone knows this. You can find a post on the vinux list regarding how to install ubuntu-server with speech. It's been reposted a few times, starting maybe a year and a bit ago. server's do not have graphical interfaces traditionally, and if one is installed it's usually something very light weight. Do you want to run a server? You can install Vinux, or standard Ubuntu and remove non-serverish packages you won't be wanting. There is no major difference between server and desktop as before, i.e. Ubulntu is using the same kernel for both now unless my memory is failing badly. So, most applications you run on a server will not work well with orca even if you install a graphical desktop. Server-users who need speech use speakup. We work on the commandline. There are certainly many cross-over usage cases where one is mostly running a server, but will want some desktop type apps available, and others where one is mostly running a desktop OS with some server software running on it. I've run both Ubuntu and Debian servers with some non-traditional for servers software on them. YOu need to learn about speakup, the console screenreader. It's very stable and snappy, quite simple, but does a great job with most commandline programs. I am using the Mutt email client with speakup to write this message, have a media stream play8ing with mplayer in another console, and have a search going on using surfraw with the Lynx web-browser. Oh, and I also have a VOIP applicationcalled linphone running in yet another console for making and receiving phone calls. I do most of my system administration and configuration with commandline programs. I use Orca for firefox, wireshark once in a while, mumble, mangler, (for ventrilo), teamtalk, and libreoffice writer to name some of the GUI programs regularly started here. There are some nice programs for the commandline that have menus, i.e. one is not always just typing command names. -- B.H.

Re: ubuntu server
Chad, I suggest you stick to trying one thing at a time so you don't get out of your depth. A server typically does not have a graphical environment running on it, this is called a GUI. Orca runs in a GUI. You can get console speech as Bert mentioned easily enough in Ubuntu Server with a few quick instructions. Most people are happy to run a talking Vinux system as a server idle if that is your choice.

An Accessible Ubuntu Server installation via Braille Display
Hi everyone, Pawel Loba reports that he was able to sucessfully install Ubuntu Server 12.04 by starting the installation manually, passing parameters to enable braille support at the boot prompt. I've compiled the steps Pawel used along with the steps Bill Taylor provided to get speakup running on the installed system as a HowTo guide. I hope this information is helpful to others. Thank you Bill and Pawel for your contribution:) Jeff Pawel reported that during the installation of Ubuntu Server 12.04 his braille display began behaving erraticly. The solution to that is to exit the gui menu and start the installer manually, passing the appropriate parameters at the command prompt. To manually start the installation of Ubuntu server 12.04 perform the following steps: 1) boot to the Ubutnu Server 12.04 installation CD; 2) After CD stopped spinning, exit the gui menu by pressing the escape key twice and enter key to confirm that you want to perform a manual install; 3) At the boot prompt type: install text brltty=auto and press enter; (this will start a manual install with braille support) The rest of the installation is displayed on your unit, just follow the typical installation screens. Unfortunately after restarting the system there is no Braille support. you will need to install brltty sudo apt-get -y install brltty and press enter. type your password hit enter and waited till your hd goes silent. start brltty: brltty -b auto -d usb: Install alsa sudo apt-get install alsa-utils runalsamixer#to un-mute sliders oo below sliders , and 50 or more on slide Install espeakup: sudo apt-get install espeakup -y Start speakup: modprobe speakup_soft start=1 sh /etc/init.d/espeakup start manually edit /etc/modules to add the line: speakup_soft start=1 to ensure speakup starts after shutdown / restarts. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

I am taking a networking class at college now and I need to install ubuntu server for part of the class. How do I get speakup installed and running in ubuntu server 12.04? Ihave been looking on google but I can't seem to find anything. I am just not sure what to be looking for Thank you, Greg Wocher Hi Greg the server and GUI versions of 13.04 run the same kernel, with speakup loaded. To get speech in precise-server (AFTER INSTALL) you need to install alsa-utils first sudo apt-get install alsa-utils alsamixer#so you can turn on sound . #you need OO under each slider # change by hitting m. mm (for Mute) is the #only alternative to OO sudo apt-get install espeakup -y modprobe speakup_soft start=1 sh /etc/init.d/espeakup start I find that I have to start speech manually each time, so to fix that use tour favourite editor (nano in my case) sudo nano /etc/modules #add the line speakup_soft start=1 #save and restart . It should come up talking. Installing precise - server will need sighted assisance. I have done many installs and reinstalls in an attempt to come up with documentation that could step VIP's through it, but there are many alternatives, depending on previous choices. I was hoping that accepting defaults would work, using the entire hard drive, then patching time zone, host name , Keyboard and so on once speech was running. I have assisted one person , speaking on mangler, and him sending me photo's of his screen via Dropbox. (We do have a common folder) Speech for the install would be handy, there are a few users working on it, but no joy yet. maybe one day someone with some knowledge will have time to have a look. bill -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
Ubuntu Server accessibility? is this possible for the Karmic Koala
Hi all I would like to know if Ubuntu server comes with any assistive technology for installing a server in a accessible way. I have read previous post where Luke pointed out that there is text only installer and no screen reader support. However I would like to know if at least Brltty is available? If not, Might be possible to add any A11y support for the 9.10? I can file bugs in Launchpad to work on this. Would be nice to have Speakup/yasr and Brltty for a text installation.
