I have a media center with a keyboard but no mouse. Is there a way I can navigate the Unity Greeter with a keyboard so I can change the session I log into, etc.?

So far, it would seem you can 'navigate' the options using the Tab key, and confirm with Enter/Return or the Spacebar, but this is a bit wonky doesn't work very well yet.

Ctrl+S activates the Screen Reader while Ctrl+H activates the High Contrast display.

And F10 opens the shutdown menu. But Tab does not work in the shutdown dialog in 11.10. That's fixed in 12.04 though. – nem75 Apr 4 '12 at 6:53
