On the Speakup site, there boot up disks that enable us to install Linux for 3 distributions but I think that they are all in English. I'd suggest that you visit the distribution links below to be sure that they meet your language needs. Do you or your students have access to Braille refreshable displays? Do you or your students have access to hard ware synthesisers? Perhaps someone could advise you on Emacspeak as I know very little about its language support. The Speakup site is where you'll find speech enabled kernels for Debian, Redhat and Slackware: www.linux-speakup.org To read about the Debian distribution: www.debian.org To read about the Redhat distribution: www.redhat.com To read about the Slackware distribution: www.slackware.com I hope that this helps.

I work in the technical support area of a Brazilian system (DOSVOX) in a federal university. In fact, the DOSVOX is a computational environment for blind users, and not a screen reader for WINDOWS. Our wish is to make our users use Linux too. For this, I would like to know how I could get a version to download. I ask: Is there a version that enable a blind person use in graphic environment for Linux ? Is a my first message to the list and my english isn't very good, sorry. I thank the collaboration.
