It does not initialize Accent synths anymore either. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shaun Oliver" <shaun_oliver@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Monday, October 27, 2003 4:02 AM Subject: Re: querying serial devices. > On Sun, 26 Oct 2003, Cheryl Homiak wrote: > > > Hi Shaun. > > You've probably already done this, but what happens when you try echoing a > > string to the serial port with the doubletalk lot turned on? > > echo hello > /dev/ttyS0 > > or whatever your serial port is. > > > > > > > *SNIP* > > well, echo "hello" >/dev/ttyS1 does exactly what I'd expect it to do. > the lt speaks the word hello. > why speakup failed to detect is it beyond me. > I've done a dmesg and speakup comes up fine byt the litetalk fails the > probe. > and echoing a ctrl_a with a question mark directly to the synth doesn't > yeald anything. > I'm probably doing that wrong in any case. lol. > > > -- > Shaun Oliver > "Becareful of the toes u step on today, they maybe connected to the ass you have to kiss tomorrow!" > > EMAIL: shaun_oliver at optusnet.com.au > ICQ: 76958435 > YAHOO: blindman01_2000 > MSN: blindman_2001 at hotmail.com > AIM: captain nemo 200 > IRC: irc.awesomechat.net:6666 > IRCNICK: blindman > CHANNELS: #awesomeradio #mircpopup-magic #linux #help #ourworld #audiofile #mauisun > > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
