I've read a message on another list tonight that kccm needs to be run in

Suggest you contact Klaus Knopper of knoppix, who had similar issues with a

Latest kernel image broke accessibility on espeakup-amd64 uild of Debian

stock version as well, but I'll find that out later this week. After

Hi all:
Sorry for the cross-posting, but I wasn't sure which list would be better for
this question.
Does the current i386 livecd have any accessibility support enabled in it?
Is either orca, or brltty installed and/or running on boot?

It turns out this is doable. By doable I mean when desktop environment is
selected with tasksel aptitude doesn't fail but only if you do it with
debian unstable a.k.a. debian sid. Lenny fails with 10 packages that

having als

with orca on debian because it's just too messy getting any accessibility
