Enabling Console Speech Inside Vinux?
Well, I tried posting a similar inquiree in the Speakup list, but it never went through. Also, I tried joining the Vinux list, but they require you to sign in to google. So here are comments-and-questions? #1 It would be much simpler if they also were to provide a windows executable, as dealing with an iso is not always convenient. #2 I was pleasantly surprised that installing Vinux along side windows vista did not nuke a JAWS10 authorization. #3 The Vinux WIKI hardly mentions screen-readers-and-how to enable them. I did purchase Voxen, as I would never wanna hear e-speak for anything. #4 Ideally, can some1 please inform what to edit so it will boot in console with either Speakup or YASR? I don't mind having access to a graphical, but I would rather boot in a TCSH shell. I can certainly use Notepad in windows to edit any configs, unless, a duel boot won't see the windows side of the house? #5 And yes I would want great sounding speech in both console-and-graphical on a 64bit image on a laptop. Thanks so much in advance for guidance Hart ___ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
Re: Enabling Console Speech Inside Vinux?
Sorry, I didn't see the rest of your questions. I asume you're talking about Vinux. I don't run Windows myself, but I'm pretty sure the wiki points people to some various options to build a bootable USB stick under Windows. Vinux comes up with Orca enabled, and I'm not sure what other screen reader options exist for Linux, so I'm not sure why Vinux would have to provide information on the wiki on how to enable Orca. You can purchase Voxin through the Vinux pages, but I use eSpeak myself. On 16/09/16 22:21, Hart Larry wrote: Well, I tried posting a similar inquiree in the Speakup list, but it never went through.

Speakup and backups
Hi everyone, I must be getting old, because I have become backup-obssessed. In addition to a backup of my home folder, I would like to use the ARCH pacman off-line alternate process, where one keeps a list of packages and the actual packages on disk, just in case Internet access is not available or is too slow. In that context, do Kernel changes like Speakup appear in the list of installed packages? I imagine not, is this correct? Also, what is the best source of instructions on how to install Speakup? Thanks, Fernando ___ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
Re: Speakup and backups
Hi, I don't know about your other questions, but about the speakup installation: I wrote a small script a while ago to assist me in speakup installation for the current kernel under Fedora. It uses a generic kernel for the compilation, compiles only speakup and copies it into the current kernel's module directory. https://github.com/zahyur/speakup-installer It has also a 'prepare' option - for installing dependancies. I've tried to adapt it for apt-get, dnf and pacman based distributions, but actually tested it only under Fedora. I posted it to the speakup mailing list, but no one responded so far. I'll be glad to hear your opinion. -- Best wishes, Zahari Fernando Botelho wrote: Fri, Sep 16, 2016 at 01:27:05PM -0300 > Hi everyone, > > I must be getting old, because I have become backup-obssessed. > > In addition to a backup of my home folder, I would like to use the ARCH > pacman off-line alternate process, where one keeps a list of packages and > the actual packages on disk, just in case Internet access is not available > or is too slow. > > In that context, do Kernel changes like Speakup appear in the list of > installed packages?
