I never see this when I read the whole screen by pressing the plus key, but just as text is coming in. It happens with my shell prompt, sometimes, or when reading text using alpine or lynx. A good test for me is to go to http://www.sixxs.net/ Then I select the item that gets me into the site. If I page up and down a few times, It'll happen sooner or later. I don't think I've ever heard ten good pages, usually it happens a lot sooner than that. I'm using the latest version of Speakup and ESpeakup. Can anyone reproduce this? TIA. -- Bill in Denver
