Yes, I've already defined the line in this way. It seems the problem is on network service, but I don't understand. Can anybody give other suggestions?

I am a beginner on using linux. I downloaded the four cds of modified fedora distribution and I want to thanks people who made this distribution possible. I have an apollo synthesizer. I guided fedora installation process by the instructions on page http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/fedora/HOWTO_INSTALL.html I choose the portuguese language and pt latino keybord map. I choose server installation and when it prompts me to install packages I selected everything option. My problem is that when I booted linux, speakup stops talking. I changed linux system boot to text mode with the command /bin/sed -i 's/id:5/id:3/' /etc/inittab as the manual says, but it didn't solve the problem completely: when I login as root, after more or less 30 seconds of login, apollo stops talking, but linux continue to work. I restarted computer and when it prompts me to enter in interactive boot by pressing the "i" key, I did it. I make many experiences, starting some services and not starting other. I understood that the cause of speakup's stop is the network service (the 8th or 9th service it ask me if I want to load), but I don't know why it is happening, because apollo stops talking only when I login. I thinnk, with my poor knowledge, that it is very strange, but maybe the network service causes a conflict, i imagine. When I started network service, it says that one cable is disconnected and to verify it. I have internet by usb modem, and I have one network card that I use in windows xp for connecting my desktop to my laptop, and in fact, this cable is not connected to laptop at the moment. Can anybody help me? What's the fuction of network service? And which could be the relationship between network service and this problem? Is there a way to solve it? Other question: what is the easiest way to see if my sound card is working on linux? I have more doubts, but this email is too long. Thanks for the attention Best regards S?rgio Neves _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
