Hi, Thank you for your advice everyone. I tried the diff command and created the patch. This looks just like what I use to do with SVN, by using the show unified diff option. This solution works, but i'm looking for something else which may be a little more faster to look at.

In Linux, development appears to be moving toward Pipewire (an audio/video routing service) and Wayland to enable remote desktop access. As far as I know, accessibility work hasn't been undertaken yet, but there is potential for it. The move from X11 to Wayland is not about to eliminate remote desktop access, contrary to the expectations of some observers.

Remote Desktop in the modern age
by Andrew Hodgson 06 Feb '19

06 Feb '19

Hi, The recent discussions on here for remote desktop have lead me to ask this question. Are the remote desktop protocols used today giving enough in accessibility? I know we have RDP and Citrix capabilities, but to be honest I have seen very few Citrix implementations these days, and more and more is being done with custom web plugins, especially in the VDI space. What potential options do we have going forward, are the current access methods likely to become outdated and who was responsible/is now responsible for maintaining the access via the new protocols? Discuss. Andrew.

Citrix web plug-in with JAWS

Good morning list, I am going for a job and they are using Citrix with the web plug-in, from what I have read JFW will only work with the Citrix receiver client and not the plug-in. Can someone please confirm this? A support call and email to freedom scientific gave mixed results, that is the phone call said no and the email said yes. Thanking you in advance Iaen Cordell.

Yes, it is connected. There’s no sound on win10 either unfortunately. I don’t think easy install works for server does it?

If you go into the hardware settings for the VM, I think that's a ctrl+d, make sure the sound card is added as well as connected (those are two different settings.)

Also just as an FYI you should be able to use the easy install feature of VMWare Workstation and have it install the OS for you and just boot to a desktop. > Ryan > > -----Original Message----- > From: Luke Scholey <l.scholey(a)lukescholey.co.uk> > Sent: Monday, February 4, 2019 4:23 PM > To: Blind sysadmins list <blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org> > Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: Sound on VMWare > > There is yes, I’m using NVDA on the host all fine. > Luke > >> On 4 Feb 2019, at 22:25, Ryan Shugart via Blind-sysadmins <blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org> wrote: >> >> Hi Luke: >> Can you confirm there is sound in the host in other applications other than VMWare? >> Ryan >> >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Luke Scholey <l.scholey(a)lukescholey.co.uk> >> Sent: Monday, February 4, 2019 11:01 AM >> To: blind-sysadmins(a)lists.hodgsonfamily.org >> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Sound on VMWare >> >> Hi all >> >> When first creating a Windows VM, with host server 2016 and guest server 2016, I get up to the server setup screen, where you choose the Lang and time zone and all that, I need narrator to help me through the install process.
