live Ubuntu cd with Orca

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
	Orca does not speak properly after the setup, unless you exit gnome.
Then log back in.  By pressing control+alt+backspace, you logout of gnome.
When you are running it live you will be automaticly logged back in.  When
you do this with it installed on your hard drive you will be tossed back to
the loggin screen. Later
Scott

If one types
left-alt f2
orca
goes through the orca setup, then closes the orca window, what is the reason
for, control alt backspace then typing orca?
Thank you for your information.
