Vinux

Vinux was a Linux distribution which was specially designed for blind and partially sighted users. Specifically it was a remastered version of the Ubuntu distribution and provided users with two screen readers, two full-screen magnifiers, global font-size and colour changing facilities. The system also supported USB Refreshable [Braille display|Braille displays].
Vinux was originally developed in 2008 by Tony Sales, Technical Support at the Royal National College for the Blind in Hereford, United Kingdom. It was first listed on DistroWatch on 1 June 2010 as Vinux 3.0.

Features

Vinux allowed blind and visually impaired computer users to install a version of Ubuntu independently. It included Orca, Speakup, Compiz, and support for Braille displays. Braille displays operate automatically when connected and support grade 1 and 2 Braille. Vinux could run from a live CD or live USB without making any changes to a current operating system. It could be installed to a USB or hard drive alongside a current operating system or as a complete replacement.
