The problem is, I don't have one, I've been running Hal and SuperNova for all my years of using computers, can I run Linux and SpeakUp without buying a synthasizer? > Yes, maybe. But, you cannot install using speech without a hardware synth. I say "maybe," because I have not had success compiling speech-dispatcher under gcc-4, but you are probably downloading a distro with an earlier gcc. Do a Google search for speech-dispatcher to find messages about how to get it working. > Cheers, > > Chris Norman. > > <!-- chris.norman4@xxxxxxxxxxxx --> > _______________________________________________ > > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list -- Janina Sajka Phone: +1.202.494.7040 Partner, Capital Accessibility LLC http://www.CapitalAccessibility.Com Bringing the Owasys 22C screenless cell phone to the U.S. and Canada.
