Re: [orca-list] ibm voices

Hi All 

Thanks for all the helpful emails. You know I tried to boot into recovery mode and it just was not working. I 
could not get into any of the accounts, root or otherwise through the console. It would just kick me back out 
after logging in. I had found directions to start in single user mode, but the code I was supposed to edit 
did not appear to be the same as was given on the page, so it might have been for a different version. I am 
running ubuntu 10.04. and I have voxin 0.38. 

In the end I just created a new installer drive, wiped the system and started over. I guess I'll keep that in 
mind when looking at script files in the future. It just seemed like I should not have that sort of trouble 
with software. 

What do you do for access when booting into single user mode? I found that I did not have any voice support 
there.

Regards
Justin Harford
