live CD and orca

[Jude DaShiell]

Okay, another thing to try.  When you get into the list box, hit down 
arrow three times; then hit spacebar once then hit tab once then hit 
enter.  If that doesn't work, instead of typing orca, type orca -t <enter> 
and see if orca starts talking.

I haven't tested any other options in the list yet because the boot time is so long.  I was considering trying to boot into Ubuntu with a different option each day and keep a log of what each item in the list actually does (but I still haven't figured out what 3 is doing).  I'm not sure if that would be helpful for the list to have?
