Re: [orca-list] Ubuntu 18.04 + orca, alt+f1 hotkey do not work.

Oh, that's because in 16.04, you were using the Unity desktop. I 
suppose, if you really really want to get that back you could probably 
install it, but, honestly, why.


Secondly, if you really want the Alt+F1 back, which I don't blame you at 
all, by the way, then you may want to try Ubuntu-Mate, instead of just 
plain Ubuntu.


http://www.ubuntu-mate.com


It comes by default with the Mate desktop instead of Gnome 3. Don't get 
me wrong. Gnome 3 is perfectly 100% accessible, well, OK, fauighn! 
99.999%. LOL! The dash doesn't exactly work, or as some would call it, 
the dock. Not sure it's correct term, but yeah, big whoo. Aside that... 
I just personally don't prefer Gnome at all, but it's still there, if 
you really want it. But yeah... for your alt+F1 and such, try the Mate 
desktop. I'm telling you... you'll swear by it, most likely!


Chris.
