Re: help with the live cd
Assuming you're talking about Ubuntu 11.10, you can just press control+s to start Orca after you hear the drums. You may also want to check out the accessibility notes that came out when Oneric was released at: http://ubuntuaccessibility.wordpress.com/2011/10/13/oneiric-ocelot/ to On 25/01/12 06:49, gene richburg wrote: > Hello everyone, I downloaded utunto 11 last week and have been trying > to get orca to talk so that I can install it, how ever, I can't get it > to work .

Re: help with the live cd
Hi, Simply boot the CD, wait for the disc activity to stop (will take a few minutes) then press control + s to start Orca. The Orca main window will have focus. Alt+tab once and you will be on a screen that allows you to either run the live session or begin an install.

help with the live cd
Hello everyone, I downloaded utunto 11 last week and have been trying to get orca to talk so that I can install it, how ever, I can't get it to work . In ubuntu 8.4 I could boot to the cd, press enter to select english, press downarrow once to tell the installer that I want to install, hit f5, key in 3 to load speech, and press enter twice and orca would come up talking, how ever that doesn't seem to work in the current billed so I was wondering if there is something I'm doing wrong? Also, in an earlier version I was able to get my pac mate braille display to work but I don't know how to get that to work either. I've been searching on the net using google trying to find some decent instructions on how to successfully boot to the live cd for ubuntu11, infact, I spent all day doing pretty much that and finally came acrossed this list. I'm gonna have some more questions later, however, right now I need to get the basic problem out of the way. Thanks for any help anybody can give me.
