-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Well, I did another test and I have it working now. The difference is I did speechd-up -s in colsole 1 and I popped over to another console and speakup started working. So the bottom line here is it doesn't seem to work when I start speechd_up by itself without the '-s' value. - -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://ld.net/?holmesgrown -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAlcXfWSjv55S0LfERAsSeAKCM+kQnc1bbvxsealVG5oBzQCukqgCfS1FO 7Oih7KXobUgb+F5zYKrZpfw= =biwv -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
