Is speakup no longer included in grml releases?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Speakup is included however the accessability boot options are gone.
Boot the cd, wait for the beeps from the speaker, hit q to exit the 
quick config screen then key in
modprobe speakup_soft
espeakup

You should get speech.
Options to load into ram still exist on the cheatsheet as far as I can 
tell and you can still do
<tab> ssh=password
to get an ssh server running on the box.

Regards, kerry.
