Hello all. I recently downloaded slackware version 11, and tried to install it using the slackware kernel. I booted from the cd, then typed speakup.s speakup_synth=txprt from the boot prompt. This did boot the linux system, but it did not begin speaking on my transport. Even after getting sighted assistance, installing slackware w/o speech, then installing speakup.s as the boot kernel, I still get no speech upon boot. I can still use my note taker as a terminal, and login that way, but I'm really puzzled why it's not talking from the keyboard. Any ideas? Slackware 11 uses speakup 2.4.33.3 in case that makes a difference. It's been quite some time since I've used speakup (back when slackware was in version 7) so it's possible I've missed something.
