Thanks for the info. I ; will check out the names you mention. I do need
speech output from the go. You can obviously get the startup stuff since it
save ti but if you've got somethign like a dodgy fstab, then your
screwed. You need to fix it and remount the disk. since speakup patches ther
kernel and is built in your goign to know that you need to remount your disk
change the kernel or whatever. Also for recovery/restore software speech
synthesis takes ashitload of space and processing power and if your needing
to do stuff on older pcs is a bit of a problem.

Hi,
I have heard the odd anecdote about people using Speakup with an USB to
serial converter but I've never heard any details.
As previously mentioned, Speakup can use software speech. This requires
the speech Dispatcher package and Speechd-up to connect the two together.
If you want software speech during install though, the only two options I
know of are Oralux and Ubuntu.
Geoff.
