-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 No need to apologize, we all make typos (smile). I did some more testing on another system, where the bns is built-in, and sftsyn is compiled as a module. It turns out that if I boot with none, invoke sftsyn, then try to echo bns >/proc/speakup/synth_name, things go bye-bye. If I first do echo none >/proc/speakup/synth_name, before doing the echo bns command, things still go bye-bye. However, if I boot with the bns connected, and it is detected, I can switch between none, sftsyn, and bns as much as I want with no problems. Going back to the first system with the doubletalk, I then booted with none as the synth. Once I did that, I was able to switch between bns, dtlk, and none again as much as I wanted, both using speakwith and manually BTW. I've also figured out why echo bns >/proc/speakup/synth_name was simply giving back the shell prompt. It was happening because the speakup_bns module wasn't loaded. With the module loaded beforehand, the echo command works just fine, provided that I didn't boot with dtlk as the initial synth of course.
