Orca on A MacIntosh?
I apologize if th9is is a dumb question. Can Orca run on one of the Intel-based Macs? I figured that it probably could, but I'm not familiar enough with the details of Mac architecture (especially around sound and speech) to know if there might be an issue. Thanks. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
ORCA Through A USB Device?
Hello, I'll try asking this again. (Though the lack of responsiveness of this list and the ubuntu accessibility forums is quite discouraging.) I tried running the Ubuntu Live CD -- it was the one handed out at CSUN, so I think it was 6.1). Because of some issues with my laptop, I run all sound through a USB Imic2. We could get Ubuntu itself to recognize the device, and send sound there, but we couldn't find a way to get speech to go there. The Orca preferences were up and visible so Orca was running, but no speech came through the headphones no matter what we tried. So can Orca output to a USB device? Is it possible in the version that shipped with Feisty? If it can't be done, then I won't be running Ubuntu on my laptop. If this is not the appropriate place to ask, let me know what is. And if this is a bug, let me know where to file. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
RE: ORCA Through A USB Device?
Thanks for replying! Yes. We couldn't find a way to get speech to redirect to the USB device, even though the Imic did show up in the device list. All we got was what sounded like a sine-wave. -Original Message- From: Joanmarie Diggs [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2007 2:09 PM To: Mia Lipner Cc: Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com Subject: Re: ORCA Through A USB Device? Hi Mia. I tried running the Ubuntu Live CD -- it was the one handed out at CSUN, so I think it was 6.1). It was actually a Feisty Herd 5 CD. Feisty has since been officially released and you can get a live CD from http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ So can Orca output to a USB device? I've never tried this as I do not have such a device. Sorry! However, the question I assume is really how does one get gnome-speech to use an alternative device? Hopefully someone here knows the answer. --Joanie -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
