-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Good afternoon, > I could be wrong, but I doubt that speakup would patch into colinux, > or that it could be built as modules against a colinux kernel. That's part of why it doesn't work. Although, when I tried it it was back before there was a Gentoo package which would compile the modules separately. You had to patch the kernel source and rebuild. As you said, the speakup patches probably wouldn't have applied cleanly. Even if they would have, though, if I remember right colinux doesn't give you the hardware control that you need either. > Oh, ok, neat. I suppose the question of how well does it work, depends > on how well your windows screen reader handles command prompt windows, right? That's the number one factor, yes. Another one is what you're trying to run. If you try to run an ncurses based application that's heavy on menus and that, you obviously are going to have difficulty interacting with it. Just like you would if you tried to do that remotely using ssh or something like that from a windows machine with JAWS. The basic command line interface and programs you'd run with it will work just fine though. - -- Stress (N): The condition that occurs when ones mind overrides the body's natural desire to reach out and slap the hell out of someone who desperately deserves it.
