Yes, speakup and espeakup are available on the iso, and orca is |
18 |
available in gnome. I haven't used gnome myself (I mostly use the |

commandline via ssh) so I can't comment a whole lot about orca. |

We also have brltty and emacspeak available in the repository. I don't |
22 |
really use them personally so I haven't looked at them in some time. |
