Hello again, Nevermind. Figured it out. Was trying to use SpeakUP's paste feature to past "speakup_soft" after the modprobe command and got a slash instead, because >DUH!<, SpeakUP wasn't loaded. I'm using the software synth now as I type this. Tada! Now to put the following in rc.local, or whatever is equivalent on other systems: # rmmod <speakup_driver> # modprobe speakup_soft # espeakup This friggin information should really be in the documentation somewhere, easy to find. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Michael -- Linux User: 177869 Powered by Intel
