	I do that, and usually have to delete a screenshot, and the keys
	still speak...some of them, anyway, and Debian Lenny must have
an old version of Orca running, because I don't get much from the
keypad.  I mostly just use the GUI to play music playlists at the
moment.  Right now Lenny's removing Open Office again to fix something,
sothere's not much reason to count on things holding together until
Debian gets all the latest bugs ironed out. <shrugs>  Beats the hell out
of Windows, though, which is only good for running Firefox and the NVDA
screen reader.
