Hi, I'm trying to get the new sarge installer beta3 working with SpeakUp and most comments had to do with the synthesizer used. It seems the best selection would be for a synthesizer probe at bootup where speakup would scan through the list of its compiled in synthesizers, run the probe routines and see which is connected, using the first it finds. Are there any synthesizers in Speakup which cannot reliably be probed? IE. a synth on a parallel or serial port which cannot reply to a status request. Also, I suppose the order of probing would be relevant as a transport would probably reply to an sa's status request in emulation mode so you couldn't do the sa probe first. Has any work previously been done on this? S -- Shane Wegner http://www.cm.nu/~shane/
