TI've stayed quiet on this particular subject because I've had to do some thinking on it, buthere's my thoughts on it.

I mainly use festival with gnopernicus, because it's easy to set up, and easy to use. There are times when gnopernicus locks my system, and I have no idea what causes it since I can't debug it since I can't access a text console when it does this. The other thing I notice is that I get almost nothing out of it with mozilla, meaning that  about the only thing I can do with it is load mozilla, and go to sites. I'm getting little to no feedback when I try to read webpages with it, so I gave up on the mozilla part of it

I don't really want much out of gnome, accept to be able to use mozilla, as well as openoffice, and maybe a few other small things. So far in my experience, I'm not able to do any of theese things, and I've done as much as I know how to be able to get this to work.

Janina is right here. Bugzilla in my experience is highly inaccessible.
