<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> Hi. I've been out of the loop for a while. the monero gui is still not accessible to screen readers

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> Do you need to have monero itself installed in order to use feather wallet, or can I use feather wlalet all on it's own?

feather is all-in-one , nothing else required

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> I'm not able to mine, there's no XM rig available when I try to download it

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> z

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> oops, sorry, screen reader playing up

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> I mean, there's nothing to right click on

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> if I install feather wallet for windows, then try to set up mining, there is no version of xm rig I can pick from to download. it's very strange

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> also, I was promised last year that the GUI for monero would get an overhall to make it more screen reader friendly, as it stands, all I am able to do when I start the wallet up is select the default language

oh in this case, no, feather does not contain anything to mine. monerod is required for xmrig

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> ah, so do I just start up moneroD and then start up feather wallet?

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> You can connect xmrig to any node (remote or local) or pool. Right, wallets don't include xmrig

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> sorry, you'll have to start again, I'm confused

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> from scratch.

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> You can connect feather wallet to any node as well

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> so, first, I install monero and then start up mondero D? is that right?

what do you want to do? send / receive monero. AND mine monero?

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> Yes

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> I am completely knew at crypto

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> you don't have to run a node to mine or use a wallet

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> I followed the instructions on setting up mining in feather wallet, but no version of XM rig is available to download

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> download xmrig from xmrig.com

the problem here is the guide is perhaps obsolete and can be reported to feather dev docs.featherwallet.org/guides/mining-setup

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> Thanks. I am just curious though as to why feather wallet can't find it?

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> also, please read xyproblem.info

better to take this to support?

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Thats why i mentioned xyproblem.info :P

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> I'm not sure if this is a gui question, an xmrig question, a wallet recommendation, or a mining question :D

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> I thought this was the right channel for support?

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> No. Support is the right channel for support

<o​frnxmr:xmr.mx> Monero Support

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> Yeah, sorry for the confusion here. there were several issues happening all at once.

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> 1. I am not able to use the monero GUI with my screenreader, so I switched to feather wallet instead

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> 2. the mining instructions in feather wallet were confusing, since a version of x-rig was supposed to become available from within the feather wallet gui interface, and you were then able to click on it, in order to download it.

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> late last year when I chatted in this room about monero gui's interface, they promised to fix the interface to make it more screen reader friendly for the blind

it seems the last update on that was provided here libera.monerologs.net/monero-gui/20241009#c441474

<t​he-whocrazy76:matrix.org> ah, crumbs
