Hi Tom, Can't you unload SpeakUp and reload it? I have found that when Orca does this, on an Asus netbook, I can either unload Orca and run it again, or since it is a Gnome desktop, I can go into a terminal and run sudo restart gdm and it restarts the desktop.

Hi all, Running speakup on Debian Wheezie with a doubletalk on an old asus machine. Occasionally when I accidentally hit shiftlock, it sticks in lock and nothing I know to do releases it short of reboot. Logout and re-login has no effect. This happened on an older PS2 keyboard and on this new USB keyboard. I should be using the speakup desktop configuration not the laptop setup, so shiftlock should not be bothered by speakup? Or is there something in Debian defaults I need to correct? If it's not speakup, any other ideas?
