Ubuntu cd, hidden features
Hello everyone. I have never used gnome before.  At first, I thought 
that all there was with the live cd of Ubuntu was the install icon and 
the sample folder. After using alt f2 I discovered some menus. I 
thought, if the run dialog is there, what else might I find? There is a 
list of different applications that I am trying. Wow!   I did not know 
they were there. After I tried alt f1, I really hit the jackpot. There 
I found system preferences, accessories, and many other menus. One is 
assistive preferences. One may set the screen-reader to start at 
log-in. But I would bet that would work, only after the system is 
installed on to a hard drive.  I am just experimenting with the live cd 
for now.  I am happy to have gotten this far.  How may I get in to an 
application's menu, for example, when in open office, how would I get 
to it's menu, file, edit, etc?
