Hello everyone, My name is Alonzo. I'm from Texas and attend TexasA.M in Corpus Christi. I am currently using Fc9 and am new to linux. I'm not totally new, but I'm just barely getting back into linux after using four it years ago. My computer is anAMD64 with a gig of ram. I have installed the 32 bit version of Fedora with speakup motified. I'm wanting to use speakup, but just had a few questions before I do so. I Also have a laptop running ubuntu. So if it would be easier to convert my laptop to Fedora, then I can do that as well. I just need input. My questions are the following for fedora: 1. When using the speakup connector, for ttsynth, I just coppy the make file into /usr/local/bin/ then creat an alias to start speak up. 2. When I edit the file grub.conf I beleive it's in /boot. To specify the software speech at boot do I just scroll to the end of the file and type speakup_synth=sftsynth then restart the computer and hope to have speech at boot time? questions not related to speakup: 1 When using the graphical end of Fedora in Gnome, I'm unable to hear sound and speech at the same time. That is, if I play try listening to an mp3, I would have to kill speech before hearing music. I tried following the instructions to get espeak to work along side orca on the wiki page, but it does not work. please advise on that as well. Thank you, Alonzo note: I can be reached the following ways msn: mariachiac at aim.com aim: mariachiac If the issues stated above are better solved by phone, then I can provide that information as well.
