I have since been doing some searching on google, and have found a couple of other dtload implementations, one of which I have already mentioned. I also noticed that one more file gets loaded when the DECtalk software loads in DOS. This file is also mentioned in other documentation on the web, yet the dec_pc.tgz package does not have this file, and it is not mentioned in the config file. The file I am referring to is usa.exe Furthermore, I have noticed that the loader gets further with loading the files with the dec_pc.tgz files, than it does with the firmware from my driver disk. Through placing some debug messages in the dtload code, I noticed that with the firmware in the tarball, the initialization message gets sent, but nothing is spoken. Same with speakup, in that the driver and speakup load fine, volume, pitch, and rate settings are fine, yet nothing gets spoken. I am wondering whether this is to do with the usa.exe file missing? I tried to add the file from my driver disk, but this causes the loader and the system to lock up. More information as it comes to hand. - -- Luke Yelavich GPG key: 0xD06320CE (http://www.themuso.com/themuso-gpg-key.txt) Email & MSN: themuso at themuso.com ICQ: 18444344 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDv0d1jVefwtBjIM4RAiehAJ9tEziWAf7QkQnkbG4pEVaTf2YrIgCfQgLb wL1fDgfjqaszdqNeIlzz0ts= =nUhe -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
