[orca-list] Ubuntu Unity Desktop to go to Mir and QT

[Christopher Chaltain]

In Unity, you can use the alt+f10 key to bring up the global menus, 
arrow left to get to the devices pull down and then down arrow to shutdown.

Note that Vinux 4.0 is based on Ubuntu 12.04 which runs Unity 2D by 
default. Your statement, "Vinux in 13.4 is confusing.
