Subject: [gentoo-accessibility] gentoo 10.0 x86 test live dvd available

1 All,
2
3 there is now a live dvd available for testing for x86 with espeak
4 and speakup on it so we can install using speech [1]. Also, brltty is
5 included if you have a braille display.
6
7 The startup procedure is still the same. Wait for the beep to let you
8 know you are at the boot prompt, then type something like this to bring
9 up speech: gentoo speakup.synth=synthname, or, something like this to
10 bring up brltty: gentoo brltty=something.
11
12 Remember that before you reboot into the newly installed system, you
13 will have to install accessibility software into it since the software
14 running is only on the dvd.
15
16 Again, if you find any issues with this dvd, open bugs on
17 bugs.gentoo.org and have them block bug 281827.
18
19 Any help testing would be appreciated.
