Re: [orca-list] The gnome switcher applet on Ubuntu

Hi,

You can get into the workspace switcher preferences dialogue (and thus add 
workspaces) by moving to the bottom panel then tabbing to the workspace 
switcher panel then hitting the context menu key and choosing preferences 
from the resulting menu.  This works for me on Ubuntu Hardy with Orca.
