HiJanina, I am running speakupmodified FC8 x64 on my notbook. I am running speakupmodified on my desktop FC8 i386. I am mainly using ttsynth for my notebook. I had just put it on the desktop to try to get the spkconnect to work. Both systems have been yum updated. I have attached the output from the make that I did for spk_connect. I realize that speakup is for terminal mode. I believe that I have followed the instructions properly. This output is from my x64 notebook. Thank you Scott -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Janina Sajka Sent: Thursday, January 10, 2008 8:24 PM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Subject: Re: ttsynth configuration You don't run Speakup in terminal mode, but rather from a text console which has its own login. You should compile the ttsynth connector for use with Speakup. Source file and instructions are on the ttsynth.com page. Whether you modprobe for speakup_sftsyn, or do 'echo sftsyn >/proc/speakup/synth_name' depends on what kernel you're using and how >it was compiled. You don't say, so I can't tell further.
