I tried emacs in the gnome terminal and indeed caret tracking works. But after trying and searching google I understand that in the terminal I cannnot display images (eg view pdf files or preview latex equations), which would be a drawback for me (also I read that I cannot use the mouse and some keyboard shortcuts). So I would be happy to report the bug. Should I report it to emacs development team and/or gnome accessibility list? Regarding manjaro-gnome, I downloaded it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/manjarolinux/files/community/Gnome/2015.11/manjaro-gnome-15.09-r3-x86_64.iso/download If I understand correctly, Sonar GNU Linux is manjaro with gnome and additional accessibility packages preinstalled and set up (screen reader, on-screen keyboard...) I do not need these additional packages, but do you think caret tracking could work with emacs (not in terminal) in sonar even though it does not work in manjaro?
