Hi Larry, You need to install Voxin differently in Vinux. Here's a page that will explain the steps. http://wiki.vinuxproject.org/voxin Also, speakup should come up in a shell. I prefer Voxin to eSpeak too. Perhaps if you get Voxin installed, you will get speech in a terminal. HTH.

Hi All: First, I had no easy way of joining a Vinux list, as you must sign in through google groups-and-google won't even send a password reminder, and writing to a contact address at Vinux did no good. It would sure be alot easier-and-`much more helpful if they had a windows executable to run to install, instead of needing to jump through hoops with an iso. To my surprise it let us install Vinux along side windows vista, without nuking a JAWS authorization. So now if I boot Vinux, I get what seems to be a graphical with `horrible speech, probably e-speak. But if I switch to a console, I get no speech. I did purchase Voxen, which I would always rather hear. Unfortunately, the Vinux WIKI does not provide any instructions in configuring or setting up speech. Also, while I don't mind having graphical as an option, I would rather it boot in a TCSH shell with Speakup-and-Voxen. I can supposedly edit whatever files would be required, in Notepad in windows to accomplish these, if some1 will please inform what to edit. This is a 64bit image, for some reason, as a duel boot there are some other test items which I should remove. On the WIKI, it makes refferences to having both Speakup-and-YASR, so please, how do I enable these? Thanks so much in advance Hart _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://linux-speakup.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/speakup _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://linux-speakup.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/speakup
