Understand, It's a matter of application. I need programs such as tonido
cloud that only run on raspbian. I also like the fact that I can log in from
my phone and do stuff if I need to via the command line. All the tutorials for
what I want to do such as samba and donido are for command line. Plus, I
really don't need the overhead of a GUI when I'm expecting my pi to deliver
cloud service. It's convenient for me not to have to buy and hook up a
keyboard or speakers, either of which take up more space and cost more than the
pi did. Well, maybe not the keyboard although I'd spend more than I had to to
get a simple wireless one that works via dongle.
The command line stinks unless you have very good tutorials or a prior deep
understanding of the ways in which linux treats hardware, file systems,
internet connections and so on. It can take a couple of tries to get something
right, and it can be unfriendly in the way it reports back, but it suits my
needs better than the GUI.
Best,

Hello,
i absolutelly don`t understand why all the blind users work via console on
their raspberry machines.
I have installed Ubuntu Mate 16.04 with Orca and it works great.
Only issue i have noticed is that you can`t use pulseaudio, it doesn`t work
properly, not only with orca but also non blind users reported this.
But when you reove pulseaudio, alsa becomes the defauld sound service so that
you are able to hear what Orca sais.

I successfully installed 2016-02-01-raspbian-jessie-with-console-speech.img.
Does anyone know if you can run Orca in order to use the GUI? Thanks.
Ken
