I got tdsr working with Fedora, both on a terminal and on a tty. I do
have a full MATE desktop, so I only neded to install python3-pyte
sudo dnf -q -y install python3-pyte
and then clone and run tdsr
git clone https://github.com/tspivey/tdsr.git
~/tdsr/tdsr
and it started speaking using speech-dispatcher's default voice. I guess
it does require that you have something already speaking, since blind
terminal input can go wrong when you can't verify the output, but if you
start from the MATE-compiz or Workstation live media, you will have
something speaking and can just mount the hard drive where you installed
the OS and get tdsr speaking from there. And I did manage to get tdsr
speaking on a text-only tty while my desktop was already running, and I
in fact had tdsr running in the terminal on the desktop at the same
time, although they were not both speaking, so it looks like pipewire
has matured enough to be effective now, and it seems to have fixed the
problem where graphical and text consoles couldn't play sound at the
same time. I also just tried playing an audio file in the text console
while composing this message on the graphical console where my desktop
is running, and the only problem I noticed is that once the file stopped
playing and tdsr gave me the command prompt, I didn't hear the last word
I typed echoed until tdsr was finished, but this is a feature of
speech-dispatcher, not an audio bug. Hope this helps.
