Of course, because that problem happend me for more times. I think I found a little problem but I am not sure. When it starts, emacspeak tell me that message that it is functioning normally (BTW. How can I change that message?) and I don't care about that message and I start pressing the normal shortcuts for launching the terminal mode before it finishes the message. When I do that, the terminal doesn't start. If I let emacspeak to finish its message, I can start it. How can I stop the voice? What key should I press if I want to stop the message? I searched in the help file but I couldn't find it.

Octavian: You need to explain yourself. What is the meaning of "of course" in your message? What's that about? Also, why are you rebooting? That's your hangover from Windows. Get a clue. That's not the way to get out of trouble. Your emacs is probably working just fine, and you can probably get back to your buffer list with c-x c-b Now, instead of whining at the first sign of trouble, why not study how to use the program a bit? Have you read the tutorials? What can you succeed with? Or, did you just come here to say: "of course" to us. I won't accept that. Not from you, not from anyone.
