Yes, that's a Ubuntu problem which should now be fixed. It doesn't start automatically in Ubuntu by default.


Killed speakup etc. with the commands you gave me.
did
modprobe speakup_dtlk

could not find speakup_dtlk


Hmm, it finds speakup_dtlk fine here. It says it's version 2.10 and supports the Doubletalk PC.

Should that have been
modprobe speakup.dtlk instead of "line" dtlk

No, it's definitely speakup_dtlk.


Just for interest? machine is an Asis P2B 1GHz celeron with 780MB ram (all
it will take)

I tested it with 1 GB of memory, so this is helpful. I would expect it not to be very responsive. The CD image uploading now will hopefully help.

Response on the livetest cd is pretty sluggish, but not unexpected, it's that
way running orca/gnome from Debian wheezy

We have at least one other older box on which we can try the livetest just
to see if it works, but that other box has no isa slots so no go for
doubletalk.
Happy to try if simply reporting another successfull livetest boot

Yes, the more testing it gets, the better. I don't think it's going to run on a machine with less memory, but it's worth a try. New CD images are uploading which should address the Braille display problem. I don't know why it can't find speakup_dtlk since it's definitely shipped in the kernel.
