Language selection should have been done as part of the installation itself. Vinux is a poor choice for text-based anything since it abandoned its text-based branch abck around version 3.x which was 2 or 3 years ago. A better bet for text-based installations is the iso at http://talkingarch.tk/. Although it talks, brltty comes on the iso so you can start that up in the usual way if braille is more effective than speech for you. It may be possible to enable speech and braille, I don't know since I never had the funds to purchase my own braille display and use it with any of these Linux distros.

Subject: vinux questions

Hi.
Finally I got the vinux live image working on my computer.
I've got some questions before I decide to use this or debian.
1. can I select the language I want?
I'm using swedish.
2. how do I do if I want to update packages?
In debian I'm using apt-get for this.
3. can I compile new kernels, and install whatever I want just like in debian?
4. can I do a text based install of vinux with my braille display?
I like text based things more than graphical.
