I subscribe to the "Raspberry VI" mailing list which you're welcome to join at
http://www.freelists.org/archives/raspberry-vi and, as operating-system accessibility goes, you can read the entire log at http://www.raspberryvi.org/accessibility-progress That said, this is assuming that the operating system is exposed to the user via an accessible interface and that you're trying to use it as a general-purpose operating system. My suggestion was that it be treated as a console, booting directly into the game which would manage the entire interface. For that, audio should work just fine. -tim On 2014-10-28 16:09, shaun everiss wrote: > I may be wrong, and this is only from a blog I read a little ago > now but there are various issues with the pie at the time of > freading which was at the end of last year beginning of this. > The most serious one is that the firmware after a sertain version > makes things access wize break. > Also since the graphics and sound go through one channel you can > only process one sound or image at once not both. > The pie does have its own linux distribution and aparently you need > to gget ubuntu or something more accessable for it. > you also need an eduino to program it aparently. > It can be used but the processer power is not that great, its > primary use is for kids and testing things, fiddling with things > but as a primary or gaming box it was not that great at the time I > read the digitaldarragh.com blog last year though I am not sure > since then. > > At 03:50 p.m. 27/10/2014, you wrote: > >It sounds like a $25 or $35 Raspberry Pi unit could serve as a > >custom console.
