[Eric Oyen]

if Vinux works, then regular ubuntu with gnome (or unity) with orca will work as well. Basically, that is the same basic DM and screen reader used in Vinux.

I think some light weight desktops are also being made accessible, so you might want to keep an eye on the Sonar project. You can get Vinux from http://vinuxproject.org/ I'm not sure how newer versions of Ubuntu, based on Unity (not Unity 2D) or Gnome, will perform on a netbook.
