speakup goes oops/bye-bye on wheezy

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

 



Hi all,
I upgraded one of my machines yesterday to wheezy. This is a virtual
machine running in virtualbox, and uses software speech. The box was
upgraded to the 686-pae kernel that comes with wheezy. The main
speakup module seems to be crashing as soon as it starts. It is
started by loading the speakup_soft module in /etc/modules, but it
doesn't seem to even get as far as loading speakup_soft. I'm pasting
the relevant dmesg output below.

I upgraded another physical machine to wheezy yesterday. This is my
older box with the doubletalk pc, but still using the 686-pae
kernel. Speakup comes up just fine on that box. I also started up the
debian 7 netinst iso in the virtual machine having the problem, and
get software speech in the install cd just fine. So, whatever the
problem is, it seems to be specific to this installed system in this
virtual machine, but I'm not sure how to track down what that might
be.

I'm trying to decide how to proceed. I'm tempted to just stick with
the old 2.6.32 kernel which I'm booted into as I write this. However,
that's probably going to bite me sooner or later. Should I get speakup
from git and see if that makes a difference? I am able to boot into
the new 3.x kernel, and use the machine via ssh. Any thoughts would be
appreciated.

I have also to figure out why I upgraded a system that brought up gdm3
at start, but doesn't seem to do that anymore either after the
upgrade. On tty7, I just here speakup under the old kernel say blank
as I move line by line without a login of any sort, text or
graphical. One thing at a time though. I need to get the speakup issue
taken care of first. The dmesg output follows.
