setting up orca



I am trying to run Ubuntu.
Because I am a member of a couple of Linux User Groups in my area and new to Linux, I am having to use a laptop as it helps me get support for any problems I may have. However, I had vaguely run Gnopernicus until I upgraded from the Beta of Dapper to actual release as I don't have access to
all commands on my Compaq laptop.
I read some info about Orca and Ubuntu and the fact someone has got this working
on a laptop.
I don't know if it is only one model of laptop which gives access to Orca, whether the user had an extended keypad for his laptop or was able to access flat review mode or other Orca commands by using the FN key that comes with most laptops but could anyone possibly tell me if Orca would be a more viable alternative for me? I have been trying to get hold of a Numeric Pad but the one my sister bought me from a computer fair is the wrong connector or needs an adapter which I have yet
to find for it.
The person who wrote the information giving instructions as to how to set up Orca on Ubuntu didn't say how he was able to access all the Orca commands on his laptop which is a bit puzzling for me as everyone who I have spoken to about Gnopernicus says I will find it impossible with a laptop so it leaves you with the same impression
with Orca.
It would have been helpful if the author had explained the laptop keystrokes if
any he used.
