Georgiana Brummell<p>To my fellow blind DOS users. I have some real machines and genuine hardware synthesizers, but at the moment, they're not available. I have a Windows 3.1 virtual machine with ASAP installed. Someone gave it to me a few years ago. But I think there's a problem with com0com. I have both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. I think the older one I used wouldn't work on 64-bit systems. Regardless, I forget how to use it. I know I need to set it to com9, so that ASAP thinks I'm using a Braille-N-Speak, when it's really NVDA that's outputting the speech. Can anyone help me? Also, I know that many developments have taken place since the last official version of MS-DOS, from FreeDOs, to FreeDOS-32, to Enhanced DR-DOS. I also know that the Provox screen reader has been made open source. To my knowledge, it's the only one that has. Has anyone tried to update it or use it with the later versions of DOS? What about real software synthesizers? Is there any way for me to obtain a full version of Vocal-Eyes, now that the company that made it isn't even around anymore, let alone supporting it?</p><p><a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=ASAP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ASAP</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=DOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DOS</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=EnhancedDRDOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EnhancedDRDOS</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=FreeDOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeDOS</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=FreeDOS-32" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FreeDOS-32</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=MS-DOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MS-DOS</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=Provox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Provox</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=screenreaders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>screenreaders</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=speech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>speech</span></a> <a href="https://friendica.world/search?tag=virtualmachines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>virtualmachines</span></a></p>

Lanie Carmelo<p>Still running into <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArchLinux</span></a> installation issues. I've gotten almost everything done, but I'me having trouble installing a <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/bootloader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bootloader</span></a>. I want to use systemd-boot. I'm using <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/vmware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vmware</span></a> workstation. Everything I've read says there should be boot options in the <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/vm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>vm</span></a> settings where I can set it to either <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/BIOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BIOS</span></a> or <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/EUFI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EUFI</span></a>, but that's not there, so I added a couple lines to the .vmx file to make it use EUFI. Everything went well until I went to set up systemd-boot. I have no efi directory under /sys/firmware, so I can't do it.
