I think I'd be tempted to give System76 (http://system76.com/), who provide preinstalled Ubuntu systems, a ring and see if they couldn't install those programs for me before or upon delivery. If not, it's a one line command to install both on a new Ubuntu system: sudo apt-get install speakup emacspeak > > I also need as many audio tools as possible. > > I am affraid you will have to stick to Windows if you need useful audio > tools that are accessible.

For example, if the graphical tools prove inaccessible, Linux has command-line conversion tools for different audio formats, and command-line tools for playing and burning CDs and transferring audio to bluetooth devices. Or are the command-line tools actually much less accessible than I'm imagining? Of course, Jim may be talking about composing music or something. -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
