Solus help center, is that on the solus page? > On Aug 4, 2021, at 5:44 PM, Linux for blind general discussion <blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I've been able to play GUI games that were made to be accessible and run in GNU/Linux, such as 2MB MineRacer, and an old tomb raider thing. Also, the user, Storm Dragon, has written what he calls his Audio Game Manager, which lets you play a bunch of old Windows games in the Linux gui, using wine and a bunch of helper scripts. Getting that thing installed into Solus looks like it would be a huge challenge. He basically wrote the thing for Arch and Slint; in the latter, the build process took a long time, and there were lots of instructions. > > > In a previous message, you wrote about keyboard shortcuts in Budgie? Try the Solus help center; there's a small table of about 10. One particular short cut, you asked about, is looking at your mounted drives. That one is not there, because it's not in Budgie, rather, it's in the file manager. If you start off, for instance, in your home folder, you can toggle various panes with f6. One of these is like the "places" menu in something like Mate. Your mounted volumes should show up there; hit up and down arrows to find them, and hit space on the one you want. You should get shifted into the content pane. > > > > HTH, > > > > Dave Hunt > > > > > Sent from my Lenovo Thinkpad, running Slint GNU/Linux. https://slint.fr for info > > On 8/4/21 6:26 PM, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: >> One good thing about this solus distro is that there's a games >> specializing distro.

Mate and the applications work as expected, with the exception of speech dispatcher. All other audio sounds fine, but speech is a little choppy. Also, I found that some packages aren't in the repos, namely LIOS and Chirp. I don't know what the build experience is like in Solus, and have those packages in my Slint system. Speaking of Slint, have you considered it? >>>>>> >>>>>> >>>>>> I have used Linux Mint Mate edition, and find that the accessibility works fine in the apps and on the desktop and menus.
