Hi, I don't recommend antergos anymore. The orca is not available there. -----Original Message----- From: blinux-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx <blinux-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx> On Behalf Of Linux for blind general discussion Sent: Saturday, December 15, 2018 3:23 PM To: blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Newbie to linux and a question Hello, Thank to you at for all the responses. I am currently running ubundu mate 18.04. The software boutique store is horrible and inaccessible. I am currently running the software center but there are applications I want which I can't find. The ones I do try do not work with orca. The store seems limited. I have learned a little about the command line but there is so much I have to learn. I was thinking about trying manjaro to see if it was better. D ebian I thought was ubundu.. Though I I may be wrong. I am eager to learn so all suggestions I will be following up with. I sincerely thank everyone for the help.
