I have only been using the ubuntu cd for one day. When I want to shut off the computer, the only way I have found to do it is with the power button. Is there a proper shut down command that can be initiated by a keyboard shortcut? Also I did alt-f1 to get an application list, but can't find any sort of file browser. Is there a way to run one? -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Cheryl Homiak Sent: Sunday, January 07, 2007 8:03 PM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: RE: Ubumtu liveCD soundcard support I can tell you that for some reason ubuntu (I'm now using the feisty live cd0 doesn't get my sblive soundcard settings right. Seems like it does unmute everything necessary but there's one surround setting that has to have the volume turned up for it to work. I end up having to just let everything boot up normally, then I switch to a console and start brltty, then I go into alsamixer and fix that setting. After that I can start ubuntu. -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
