Someone correct me if I'm propagating misinformation, but I don't believe that CentOS is usable with Speakup. I believe the kernel included with it either is too old to have Speakup in Staging, or the Staging drivers aren't enabled. However, all this seems to be available from Fedora 20, which although it starts graphical, is accessible using Orca, and you should be able to get Speakup working once it's installed. It mostly depends on whether or not there is an espeakup package available from the repo. If so, it should be as easy to get running as sudo yum install espeakup sudo systemctl enable espeakup sudo systemctl start espeakup from inside of a terminal. Then on booting the system, you should be able to switch away from the login screen, i.e. using alt+control+f2 and login using Speakup. Hope this helps. ~Kyle http://kyle.tk/ -- "Kyle? ...
