Hi there, the command I use in my lilo.conf file looks something like this: append="speakup_synth=acntsa", and that worked for me. Perhaps check your serial port settings? I know that some SA's run at 38400, whil others run at the standard 9600 baud. Note that if it works, you'll here accent init code, which might sound like garbage, but it does work. hth, Arthur. ----- Original Message ----- From: "hank" <hanksmith4@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Tuesday, June 21, 2005 4:55 AM Subject: speakup using keynote sa driver with accent sa driver? hello can the person who got there keynote sa driver working with the accent sa driver can you tell me what command you put in to get it to work?
