[orca-list] Ubuntu-Mate 15.04 is running on my box.

Wow, that was fast!

I booted up the live medium from a USB stick, and heard some bongos, 
indicating the system's readiness.  I did 'alt+super+s', and got speech 
on the screen on which one chooses  weather to install or try Ubuntu. 
After I hit 'try', I waited a bit, and got no speech.  Also, the 
shortcut for toggling speech is not bound.  No problem, I just started 
orca from the 'run' dialogue.  That done, I played with the systems a 
bit, then ran the installer.  I had to restart orca, twice, to keep 
speech going throughout the installer process.  When I finished, I 
restarted the system.  On restart, I used 'f4' to get the login manager 
talking; it talked; I entered my password; and it crashed, stopping the 
login process.  I opened another console, logged in, and did:

sudo reboot now

This time, the login screen came up talking, I entered my password, and 
all was well.  After I heard the login music, I got some kind of 
terminal emulator thing called Tilde running, which I stopped, and found 
a new desktop running.  Now, I have a new system, and the customization 
begins.


HTH,
