-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Hey, I've been using espeakup for over twelve hours now and by and large, it's looking pretty good. It is very snappy and responsive. I can't say I've had any problems interrupting speech either. I have run into a couple issues however. On my laptop which has a very single-minded single chanel sound card, I haven't figured out a way to be able to use Speakup and mplayer at the same time. I have to silence Speakup first and then start mplayer to listen to something. I cannot use Speakup at all while mplayer is running. I have mplayer to use the ALSA dmix plug-in in the configuration but I don't know how to get espeak and/or espeakup to use the same plug-in I have espeak compiled with Portaudio 19 which I thought was ALSA. The other thing is a few minutes ago on my desktop machine with does have a nice SB Live card shares sound with Mplayer and Orca/Gnome-Speech just fine, I lost speech! I was in mutt reading some mail and all of a sudden, no speech. It just quit! I could switch to my gnome session and that still talked fine and I got speech back by killing espeakup and restarting it again. When I lost speech in my original text console, I got to a shell prompt and just tried running espeakup with no results. I later saw that it said the program was already running. But when I killed it from another terminal and restarted it , I got speech back and it has been running since. Wonder if anyone else has had any speech losses with this. - -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://holmesgrown.ld.net/ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFImLtDWSjv55S0LfERA7DxAKCZDu54VSRA/P/C3crsaK88Hitd/QCbB2rx cnAdnErsNMUOLTl4cz6mW6I= =RsNx -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
