Re: [orca-list] ubuntu and netbooks again

["Tj" <kaiserdragon52 gmail com>]

Well it mostly crashes on Ubuntu 8.10.  I hven't updated orca now thatI
think about it, and I'll have to give it a shot.  If I'm reading a lot in
firefox, alt-tabbing back and forth a lot (Reading the doccumentation n
MySQL and using alt tab then typing is what killed me a lot).  I'm just a
regular college student.  I've noticed that withWubi and Ubuntu 8.10 my
laptop gets longer batterylife, isquieter, etcetera, so, I use orca with
openoffice word to ake my class notes, and I'll even use it to go onto my
university's blackboard site to take quizes (If their not timed, I'm not
that familiar with it yet).  I'll, like now, use evolution to type an email
if I'm p and in Linux.

My main thing like I said earlier that's killing me.  Give me a mudclient
with sound support, and give me an accessible skype program and I'll
consider making this my main OS>

Hi Tj:

As with Rene, we need to hear from you.  Can you tell me more about the
crashes, what you're doing at the time, etc.  Also, which OS are you using
and which version of it and Orca are you using?

In addition, I'm interested in you using Orca as part of your student work.
Can you tell me more about what you do with it, why you're using it for
classwork, etc?

Thanks!

Will
