Re: speakup with usb keyboard and no monitor?

I have no problem using talkingarch linux that way but have a monitor attached now. That particular flavor of linux will operate with or without a monitor. Others I have tried aren't nearly so reasonable. If you have another usb port available, you could get a monitor that will connect by usb or any of the other connectors like dvi or vga or hdmi and get an adapter for usb and your connection type and then be able to attach a monitor anyway. Another possibility that I suggest you have checked out in a shop if the machine has a single usb port is to buy a usb hub too and attach the hub to the computer then attach the keyboard and monitor to the hub. Real good to make certain it works before buying it though.

Subject: speakup with usb keyboard and no monitor?

Sorry if this is a bit off topic. Essentially this is a linux configuration question.

I have built and installed and can insmod speakup.ko and speakup_soft.ko on my $9 getchip.com computer.

The board has no video connection but I can plug in and have a USB keyboard detected.

I'm wondering how to configure things so that a console is present which speakup will speak but that I can type in with the USB keyboard.

Thanks,
Craig
