Another way, and the one I prefer is to change the TextUi line to read TextUI: ncurses.ui For me, the cmdline.ui crashes. I also have to change the "PMO" line to select esound. Alsa gives me noise, and the default, which I assume is OSS, skips severely. I also had to set the soft mixer to false in the same file. If Mplayer would show MP3 and OGG tags reliably, I'd dump Zinf as it's pretty buggy for a Linux program, and I have no clue how to fix it. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Gregory Nowak Sent: Friday, March 31, 2006 4:37 PM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: Re: zinf error -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 You need to define a ui. I don't have zinf installed anymore, but the syntax should look something like: zinf -c cmd.ui file.ogg This would tell zinf to use the commandline ui. Look through your zinf directories, and anything ending with .ui is a user interface file. Sorry I couldn't give you the exact path/filename, but hth never the less.
