Proxmox (was RE: Re: vmware workstation for linux)

Hi, Has anyone tried Proxmox on a dedicated server? Right now I use my Synology NAS for running a Linux and a Windows VM, using the OCR function if I need to get a screen capture. Audio redirection won't run like it does on VmWare workstation of course but just putting it out there.

As far as I know, everything you can do in the graphical interface can also be done at the command line. So it is very accessible. Here's a tip about running a virtual machine in Linux: You can take a screen capture and then run an OCR program on it to read the screen even if sound isn't working. I think almost all virtual environments have screen cap functions. In VirtualBox you get a png image of the screen. I have found that gocr works much better than tesseract for recognizing the text in those screen caps.

Log and Performance monitoring help please?
by Zee 09 Oct '20

09 Oct '20

Hi all, I hopefully might find myself doing more sys administration tasks, one of which is to ensure that servers are performing optimally, as well as looking at system/application logs when it comes to troubleshooting. I'd like to know how have you gone about this in an accessible way please? I remember trying to look at event viewer logs with JFW and that the MMC console kept crashing or that jaws was really sluggish in the console? Are their alternative apps when it comes to log analysis from an accessibility standpoint? How about graphs regarding CPU/Memory/Disk performance? I apologize for the many questions, Your help would really be appreciated. Kind Regards

new job with remote workload
by Isaac 07 Oct '20

Hi, had a question, is there a way to perform a remote session on a computer using the screen reader on my computer so that the remote computer doesn't hear the chatter of my screen reader. I have used team viewer in the past but unless I crank up a screen reader on the other computer it doesn't work. Thanks

Terminal copy/paste functions in Windows Subsystem for Linux
by Jason White 07 Oct '20

07 Oct '20

I am running WSL version 2 under Windows 10 version 2004, with all Windows updates applied. Is there a keyboard-based approach to copying/pasting text from/to the terminal, either using the default Windows console, or Windows Terminal? Windows Terminal appears to be accessible via NVDA at the moment, but not yet with JAWS, based on my testing with both screen readers.
