Hi Erik, well, unfortunately the Debian version for the Eee doesn't have Brltty or any accessibility software, so you can forget it really. The installer for the "normal" Debian doesn't recognice the network interfaces of the Eee, so you can only perform a minimum installation. There's a page in the Wiki that describes how to install packages that will allow you to use the network interface and such, but that never worked out for me. Of course, you could ask a sighted person to install Debian Eee for you, but they made some customizations to Gnome so I wouldn't be surprised if Orca won't work. There's also a Ubuntu version for the Eee that was accessible, but in the latest release they also changed the desktop so Orca won't work anymore. If you wanna get a laptop to run Linux on, I wouldn't recommend the Eee for you, at least not yet. Maybe Eee drivers will be included in the normal distributions, maybe not, sorry! Robin
