What are you housing your Raspberry Pi in? I bought a case for mine for a few bucks, but it is round, shaped like a large smoke detector, and all I can think that I can do with the plugs is to plug them in and run them through the hole in the middle of this smoke detector. I wonder if it would fit into a plastic cassette case? An Altoids box would work if the tin did not have rounded corners.

I'm just wondering if any progress has been made by anyone on making the Pi talk. I've done a few experiments as per trying to reduce the pops made by the audio device. Also, why is this list so low traffic? It saddens me deeply! Has it moved to another server? Anyway. iIinstalled pulseaudio on the pi, thinking it would stop the crackles. It really didn't because pulse goes through Alsa. What's even weirder is that speech-dispacher can't seem to be able to speak through spd-say, but espeak talks just through the espeak command. I don't know why this is, but I suspect it's a hardware thing. I've reconfigured speech dispatcher, without much luck. I even got orca to run in the standard desktop, but all I hear is a loud pop when it starts (alt+F2 still works to open a run dialog in the desktop environment, so after apt-get gnome-orca one can blindly run it). I suspect that this is because orca obviously passes stuff to speech dispacher, which can't talk. All the best, Tomi _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at linux-speakup.org http://linux-speakup.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/speakup
