Re: [orca-list] Vinux & Unity - Top Panel and resident drives

[Christopher Chaltain <chaltain gmail com>]

First, the latest Vinux is ambiguous. There's a currently supported 
released version and a beta version. Vinux 4 is the currently supported 
released version, and Vinux 5 is in beta.

Alt+F10 works for me in Vinux 4, which is what I'm using now. I'm sure 
it works for me in vinux 5 as well, but it's been a few days since I've 
pulled it up. I'm sure if it had not worked, I would have noticed it. 
The next time I pull it up, I'll check, and if there's an issue, I'll 
report it to the Vinux developers.

To manage my disks and partitions I use the Dash and bring up an 
application called Disk Utility. If you're talking about accessing these 
drives that are already mounted, I just use Nautilus for that. Make sure 
Places in your side bar panel is active.
