Hi,<BR>
I am new to Wine and to the list. I was wondering if someone would be willing to help find out f some accessible games for the blind can be ran under Wine. I use the Orca screen reader which doesn't work with Wine at all. So, if the games can be made to work under Wine, I would like to create a script that will handle all of the setup for each game. At least some of the games require DirectX 8 (I think). There are lots of accessible games, but most of them only work under Windows. I don't want to bother with installing a virtual machine and I don't want to add another OS, so I think Wine is the best way to go if it can work. It shouldn't be too hard from all the stuff I have read about Wine's capabilities. If it is possible to automate everything with scripts, I could add them to my blog for other people to use as well. I personally use Ubuntu 9.04, but hopefully it will be possible to make the scripts so that they will work on any flavor of Linux. Some games are located at:<BR>

There are some free games, and the rest have demos.<BR>
Also, if anyone feels up to it, can you find out if the Windows screen reader NVDA will work in Wine? It can be found at:<BR>

Thanks for the help<BR>
