Hi list, I did try to post this before, but when I
did I didn't realise that i'd messed up when trying to subscribe so sorry for
having to post twice.
Anyway,
I'm new to this list and fairly new to linux,
though i have had experience using a cygwin environment.
my question relates to a linux distribution that i
found recently on the net for testing the security of networks.
this distro is called backtrack.
its available from
I'm planning to try to run it from a USB flash
drive. however I was wondering is there anyone on this list who has had
experience with using this particular distro or who knows if it is possible to
make it talk? from what I have read on the forums, it is possible to update the
kernel meaning that in theery it should be possible to get speakup working with
it providing it is not graphical.
I don't no much about the actual distro itself
because the forum is huge and really hard to search, however I no it is based
off a slackware distro, and it seems to be using a kurnel which would be
compatible with speakup.
if it is not possible to get the backtrack distro
itself talking, I had thought that it might be possible to some how extract the
tools from the distro and put them into my own custom linux, but again I don't
no as there doesn't even seem to be a comprehensive list of tools on the
forum.
I did try asking for help in the forum newbie area
and also e mailed the site admin but have so far been ignored.
So if anyone has any thoughts about this i'd be
greatful for any help.
Alex. |
