Good luck finding one that doesn't interfear with something because
you have to try to make it not interfear with Jaws and not interfere
with your orca and gnome commands.

Well one could easily set it to another key combo that doesn’t do
that, right?

I use it without scripts. I know there are scripts but it works
fine. Only one problem I have and it’s a minor annoyance and I am
sure if I wanted to script it I could script around it. I set my
leave vmware window key to control-alt-shift. This doesn't interfere
with Jaws but once I am out of the vmware window then control is
locked because of the control-alt-shift combo. It just means I have
to do control-alt-shift. Then control-shiftlock and then I am off and
running. So I have got really fast typing that. I have found no
other problems with jaws.

And is VMware player accessible all the way with JAWS? I’ve heard
various complaints about that.

My Ubuntu 64 under vm ware player on a Intel I3 2.1 with only 4 GB
runs vinux just fine giving it 3 gb of ram and 2 cpu. you can give it
up to 3.8 without killing the machine. if you only have 4 GB to
give. I will let you know how much better it is when I get the 8 GB
put in my laptop. Note though it would also help if you had a laptop
with a 7200 speed drive most are not though. Mine is only a 5400 but
it with my low end hardware it still runs really well. It even runs
better on my Mac book pro under fusion which is just vmware for Mac.
On there I am giving it a full 4 gb because I have 8 gb and at the
time didn't know it was ok to go ahead and run it at 75 % of the
memory available. Anyway it runs very good on my machine. I have
found though that most of the AMD machines don't run vmware very well
so since you have intel you should be pretty good.

Speaking of virtual, and sorry to get off topic, but I’m curious. I
plan to run a virtual instance of Open Suse from Novell on my laptop
using VMware player starting this summer. I want to get acquainted
with the Unix environment just for the heck of it, but two of my
friends say that virtual instances of any Linux distro don’t work very
well and that they “blow”. What do you have to say about that? Do
you agree or disagree? I ask because I want this to be a cool
experience rather than a waste of my time. Thanks.

Hi Storm,
Very cool. What does someone need to take the class? I have Vinux
Virtual on my machine at home.

Hi,
It looks good. The only thing is, although you mension the Vinux
Project you do not make it a link. It should link to:
http://www.vinuxproject.org/
Also, if you would like another bash resource I have been teaching a
class in a new Vinux experiment called Vinux Classes. It's an irc chat
room set up specifically for teaching Vinux related classes. All the
classes are logged and are located at:
http://classroom.vinuxproject.org/
Thanks
Storm
