working linux distribution

[Justin Harford]

Hi all

I have been trying ubuntu hardy for the last couple days, and am  
bothered by the lack of stability with orca.  It seems like it  
arbitrarily crashes (loses speech) when I'm using it, perhaps 3 times  
each hour.  I have not been able to isolate the problem to a specific  
activity, maybe when I am just reading up and down in text.

What I'm curious about is if anyone here has found that some  
distributions, ubuntu dapper, fedora, etc work better than others with  
regards to accessibility and usability and if you might be able to  
recommend one to me.

Regards
Justin Harford
