I'll try once more. For now, when I hear the startup sound, I hit alt-f2, type Orca <enter> And nothing happens. Someone mentioned that soundcards get muted sometimes. Could this happen after the startup sound? That doesn't make much sense to me, but fitured I'd ask. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Ricky Enger Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2007 8:14 AM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: RE: Ubumtu liveCD soundcard support Hi, If you hear the startup sound but Orca isn't speaking, it probably means f5 wasn't pressed soon enough to access the menu and choose accessibility. No big deal. Once you hear the startup sound, just do the following. Press alt-f2, type orca and press enter. Orca will ask a couple of questions, and once you've answered those you'll be told you need to log out and back in again for the accessibility flag to be initialized. Press control-alt-backspace to log out. The cd will log you in again automatically, so once you hear the startup sound again, just press alt-f2, type orca and press enter. After that, you should be good to go. Hth, Ricky At 08:17 AM 1/7/2007, you wrote: >My cd keeps spinning also, though I do hear the start up sound >eventually.
