Subject: RE: Speak supported Distributions: I still use CentOS, but I just use the stock distribution. I use ssh to administer it. To install, I write a kickstart disk that makes all the important install choices for me. Once it is up and running, ssh from my speakup equipt desktop does the trick. I have built and administered hundreds of servers this way. Everything from mail servers to phone systems to web servers and clustered virtual servers. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Dawes, Stephen Sent: Wednesday, February 10, 2010 10:38 AM To: 'Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.'

Subject: RE: Speak supported Distributions: Yes, but for a regular machine I could not tell a difference. I would not run a server like that, but for my personal machine which I use to access server machines, I think it is just fine. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Dawes, Stephen Sent: Tuesday, February 09, 2010 4:10 PM To: 'Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.' Subject: RE: Speak supported Distributions: Kelly, In creating a custom kernel, did you loose out on the customizations that are in the centos kernel by default? Stephen Dawes <B.A., B.Sc.> -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Kelly Prescott Sent: 2010 February 09 1:14 PM To: 'Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.' Subject: RE: Speak supported Distributions: Steven, I just compile a custom kernel from scratch, and then lock the kernel rpm so it can't be updated. You can't patch the centos kernel as there are a lot of mods to it, but they have not impacted my operation any. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Dawes, Stephen Sent: Tuesday, February 09, 2010 2:34 PM To: 'Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.' Subject: Speak supported Distributions: Does anyone have any experience using speak with centos? If not, what is involved in adding speakup into the centos kernel? I know that centos is the open source version of RedHat enterprise Linux, so I thought there may be someone who has done this on the list. I am interested in going to centos because I am finding it hard, with time constraints, to keep up with the latest version(s) of fedora. Thoughts and opinions welcome.
