Dear users,

    I would like to give You some useful hod keys for The situation, when You 
will lose speech support and if Gnome will stop to operate. Please remember, 
that CTRL+ALT+F1 and other key combinations with some of function keys are 
awailable for You. So if You will not be able to even shut down computer by 
pressing power button, Gnome shutdown process will not recall, do not panic. 
Instead of force shutdown,which may corrupt Your harddrive if You will do it 
very often, press CTRL+ALT+F1. The user name login screen wil appear. Type Your 
user name followed by pressing Enter key, then type Your password and You will 
press Enter key again. You will be at The console.

You can start brltty or even install Yasr, Yasr is able to work in Ubuntu 
Jaunty.

apt-get install yasr

You will be able for example to shutdown your computer from The console. But 
Gnome data will probably will not be saved correctly, but You will not be 
forced to shutdown Your computer by forcing shutdown it.

YOu are able to switch between console and login prompt and Your Gnome session 
by pressing CTRL+ALT+F7 for recalling Gnome session or by pressing CTRL+ALT+F1 
to recall login prompt and after login, YOu will use standard Linux console.

So i think, that this information would interest somebody of us.
