Thanks Kyle,
I downloaded the Fedora Mate version and I put it on a bootable usb
drive, then I ran it and got orca to talk. For whatever reason, the
speech came out of my laptop built-in speakers, not through my headset
as I prefer. Braille did not come up at all, although my vario ultra is
connected. I hit insert space and checked the orca settings and found
Braille enabled there. I find this strange. I did not have this problem
with mint, or slint, or coconut. It looks that the fedora team needs to
do a little more work to make it better.
Cheers,
Ibrahim

Fedora doesn't need Speakup for the installation process. Just boot up
the live image, press alt+f2 and enter
orca
in the run window. Once Orca starts, you will find the installer on
the desktop if you're running the MATE version. If you run the GNOME
version, known as Fedora Workstation, you will need to hit the super
key and find the installer from there. The MATE desktop tends to have
better accessibility with Orca, so I use and highly recommend it. The
installer will see your USB drive, which you can configure for
automatic installation. Hope it helps.
