<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Dave, Pia and Marion,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for helping me out.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I did not thought of Vinux. So I did a fresh
install of Vinux 3.0.1 and also install Orca 3.1.1. So right now I have the
stability of Lucid and the features of Maverick.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>I haven't tried all the edubuntu apps, but suspect that most
are not accessible with Orca. Most of them are very game-like.
<BR><BR>I volunteer with a group of Harvard Medical School folks who install
onto donated laptops and send them to orphanage schools in Latin
America. The schools have no internet and limited space, hense the
laptops and notebooks. Most of the students have no need of
accessibility; it gets turned off after I do my installs. I often use a
Vinux live cd for initial testing, shredding of the hard drive, etc.
When I decide that a machine checks out, I do a regular install, with
blindness profile. After applying os updates and installing the Edubuntu
meta-package, I do a final bit of testing, then pronounce the machine
fit. Donations with less than 256 mb ram get
Knoppix.<BR><BR><BR>Cheers,<BR><BR><BR>Dave<BR><BR><BR>On 05/20/2011 10:31 AM,

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>We will donate a computer to a smaal

They do'nt have access to the internet.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>So the computer, of course with the help of
Orca, can be a great help for education etc. and also to play some

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed Maverick and Orca 3.1.1 but can
somebody confirm if this is the better choice than Lucid

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I think the computer will be used untill
