Hello all: I have a couple of questions, most of which is just clarification. I am really interested in making a sort of live cd, as well as something that could be installed for both GUI and cli usage. I'm bouncing between arch and Debian, but I think all of these questions apply. First, I know there is a lot of trouble making speakup and orca work together, for example with audio. If I understand this right, pulse works through Alsa. Is there a way that Speakup could just be designated to work with Alsa, or perhaps Espeakup could be modified to work with Pulse, then everything could run happily through Pulse. How have you all handled this in the past? My other issue is setting up the live cd/installer. I know about squashfs, which is used on a lot of live/installation cds. How hard is something like this to get going? I remember a project a while back--I think I looked into it when I was trying to help Vinux, but from what I remember it died off. What sorts of tools are used for the installers and just the live cd creation in general? -- Take I know there are changes that need to be made, like making it just jump you to a root prompt rather than requiring you to log in on a live cd. care, Ty Web: http://tds-solutions.net The Aspen project: a light-weight barebones mud engine http://code.google.com/p/aspenmud Sent from my toaster.
