Hi all, I am trying to use my Dectalk external (old) with my Vinux speakup system. Hoever, executing modprobe speakup_decext ser=0 results in: modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'speakup_decext': No such device At this point speakup stops talking, the /speakup/synth file contains "none" and the speakup var system does not contain a decext subdirectory, and changing the synth file to contain decext does not work. So, at that point, I reboot to resurrect speakup using espeak. At the moment, my Dectalk is connected to the /dev/ttyS0 port, and it speaks any text I write to the port. But this is no substitute for it working with speakup. Executing modinfo speakup_decext returns: filename: /lib/modules/4.4.0-36-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/speakup/speakup_decext.ko version: 2.14 license: GPL description: Speakup support for DECtalk External synthesizers author: David Borowski author: Kirk Reiser <kirk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> srcversion: 46ED8AA54EDEE108A987806 depends: speakup staging: Y intree: Y vermagic: 4.4.0-36-generic SMP mod_unload modversions 686 parm: ser:Set the serial port for the synthesizer (0-based). (int) parm: start:Start the synthesizer once it is loaded. (short) Also, executing modprobe speakup_decext ser=0 returns the same no such device error message. Executing modprobe -n -v speakup_decext returns: insmod /lib/modules/4.4.0-36-generic/kernel/drivers/staging/speakup/speakup_decext.ko Executing: modprobe speakup_decext ser=0 start=1 gives me the same results, silence and I need to reboot. Any suggestions how to get the decext module to load? Thanks.
