I do agree that speakup is an awesome product, but it isn't the only way to have a screen reader from startup to shutdown. If you could create a screen reader as a system service in the way apache, sendmail, etc work then as soon as your system services load so would the screen reader. Maybe not as nice as speakup does, but would probably be easier to setup and compile than speakup is. ----- Original Message ----- From: Adam Myrow <amyrow@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Wednesday, April 16, 2003 9:07 PM Subject: Re: redhat problems > I don't ever want Speakup to be user space for one reason.
