If you like espeakup, you don't need speech-dispatcher and speechd-up. You can just install the espeakup package. If you're running squeeze, you can just 'apt-get install espeakup'. But even if you're running lenny, you can download the package from a squeeze repository and install it. The package from squeezwe works in lenny. If you must use speech-dispatcher and speechd-up, you will need to follow the installation instructions at the freesoft web site. These are somme of the best instructions I've ever seen because they include tips on how to tell if what you've done so far is working. The problem is that just saying that you don't get any speech after installing speech-dispatcher and speechd-up isn't enough information to help you because there are about a million ways that might not work. http://cvs.freebsoft.org/doc/speechd-up/speechd-up_1.html ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kristoffer Gustafsson" <kg84@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Wednesday, June 09, 2010 1:08 PM Subject: Re: big problem, please help, speakup and debian Hi. Well, I tried everything, but it didn't work, so I had to remove lenny and install squeze. Not good since I was happy with lenny. I've got problems with it. Speech-dispatcher works, but not speechd-up when loading that I get no speech at all. What can this be? And when I shut down speechd-up and start espeakup, I get sound, but first a message about jack server, or something like that. Also, the soundcard thing doesn't work. I've got no modutils.d/alsa file. /Kristoffer ----- Original Message ----- From: "John G.

That is odd. I'd reinstall the speakup-modules package. # apt-get install --reinstall speakup-modules-2.6.26-amd64 Of course, you might have to chage the amd64 part to 686 or whatever to match your kernel. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kristoffer Gustafsson" <kg84@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 12:56 PM Subject: Re: big problem, please help, speakup and debian Hi. This doesnt help. it compiles the 3.0 version that belongs to that 2.6.26-2-686 kernel even though I'm running the older one. 2.6.26-1-686. These modules compiles for both the kernels, and when I load any of them, linux hangs, and stops responding. what the f... is this! /Kristoffer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Whapples" <mwhapples@xxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Tuesday, June 08, 2010 6:45 PM Subject: Re: big problem, please help, speakup and debian I thought there were speakup modules for squeeze in apt... Anyway if there isn't for some reason there is always the speakup-source package you can revert to for compiling speakup for your debian kernel. I can't remember if you can use module-assistant for speakup, if you can it should be as simple as running the command: module-assistant a-i speakup While running the kernel you want to compile against. I think there is an option for compiling it against a kernel other than the running kernel but can't remember it now.
