I also forgot to mention in my last message that I also tried going to
the gparted program from mate itself using the alt f 1 and going to
system tools, if memory serves that is where it is located
it then launches and the same behavior happens as described in last
email that I sent out.
once again I am not trying to miss spread info but I have trying to
figure this stuff out for several weeks and am about to give up on linux
intirely I really don't want to cause I really like the stuff that linux
offers the blind comunity
thanks

Well, if what you're saying is true, how was I able to do a complete
install by myself without help and why have other people on the Orca
list had the same success? I'm sorry, but you're spreading
misinformation. Please don't do that. If you're having problems,
please ask or do some research, but please don't assume that Ubuntu,
MATE or Orca are automatically at fault. In this case, you didn't
press Super-S when the DVD booted, so Orca didn't start
automatically. You shouldn't be running the partition manager with
Alt-F1 or Alt-F2 regardless. You should get a message spoken when you
press Super-S telling you that the screen reader is running. This is
clearly documented on the Ubuntu accessibility wiki page. The super
key is also known as the Windows key. If Super-S doesn't work, try
Super-Alt-S. Also, no, it doesn't run Terminal at all during the
installation. Orca speaks great in the terminal, even as root with sudo.

Hello you may want to give ubuntu mate a try?
how ever you are unable to run the partition manager when you alt f 1
and go
to the respective program to run it.
think it is running mate terminal wich causes orca to stop speaking
have yet
to find a fix for this wich is causing me to have second thoughts on
ubuntu
mate and mate as a hole have had nothing but problems with it.
