Will it detect SBLive value cards for sound? I should take that hastle of a beast out of the old box and buy another Turtle Beach Montego DDL as I know Oralux detects that without a hitch in the machine that only works with windows because of the network card. I wonder how easy it is in this Ubunto that's accessible to use something besides Festival if I buy a better synth, or if maybe I can just use my Double Talk PC?

Subject: ubuntu install question


I'm trying to install accessible ubuntu onto a hard drive here. With sighted assistance I learned you key in boot selections and boot commands 10 seconds after you hear the post test beep. Then gnopernicus comes up talking for me. When I try to install ubuntu and it can be done by sighted people and I know of a remote kickstart way to get it done too I get gnopernicus minimized and then do alt-f2 and key in install and tab once and hit space to run it in terminal mode since gnome panel won't work for this. Then I tab over to run and hit enter. An install window is created and when I try alt-tab to open it it says switch to install window but that's all. If anyone else who has done this knows, is the install application needing to have caret mode used to make it talk or is something else limiting things? When I had sighted assistance to install on this drive the first time we ended up with a grub error 18 the first time and couldn't get past that. The second time I tried installing was remotely with linux ks=http://cwelug.org/~rwcitek/ubuntu/ks.cfg I got an error 22 frrom grub as it failed. Others on this list who try that install may have better luck which is why I'm sharing it here. By the way, if you replace linux with server in front of ks= on that last line you get a server installation rather than a desktop install. The desktop install is the more complete of the two of them. Now I have to research grub error 22 before my next installation attempt. This could be a bad hard drive and if so, it's on a sled so can be switched out.
