Re: Beginning my yourney with Linux
Re: Beginning my yourney with Linux Unfortunately, Espeak-ng isn't currently available from the main repos, so you'll have to get the pkgbuilds from AUR and build it yourself.I don't know if you know about the Arch User repository (AUR) at this point, so I'll tell you what you need to do.The first thing you'll wont is an AUR helper. The easiest one I know of is called "Pacaur", so that's the one I'll use in the examples here.Go to the following page:https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pacaur/Choose "Download snapshot" and save the file.Then in a console or in a terminal window, change to the directory where the file was saved, and extract the file with "tar -xvf pacaur.tar.gz"The extraction should've created another directory called "pacaur", so "cd" to it.Then' type the following command:makepkg -iThis will make the package file, and then install it with Pacman.Once that's done, things get easier, as Pacaur will automate the rest of the installation for you.To make sure that Espeak-NG will work like the old Espeak at higher speeds, we need to install the "libsonic-git" package, so type:pacaur -S libsonic-gitFollow the prompts, and once that's done, Type the following two lines, following the prompts as before:pacaur -S pcaudiolib-gitpacaur -S espeak-ng-gitOnce those are installed, you're pretty much done. ALl you need to do is either kill and restart speech-dispatcher and espeakup, or restart your machine at this point. HTH.

Re: Beginning my yourney with Linux
Re: Beginning my yourney with Linux The last time I tried installing Ubuntu for someone else, when I tried to launch Orca in the installer, it would come up talking, then almost immediately exit again. After we managed to get it installed, Orca runs, but it seems like Orca will randomly exit when focus changes to a menu or a new window. Very frustrating.I am currently using Arch Linux as my distro, with Xfce as the desktop environment, and dispite a few minor issues and annoyances, things are working well for me. I also had a small amount of lag when navigating with Orca, though that was completely fixed when I switched from Espeak to Espeak-NG.

Re: Beginning my yourney with Linux
Re: Beginning my yourney with Linux Would definitely recommend a CLI setup with Emacs and Emacseak. And, if you're willing to learn how to build and tweak things, Gentoo Linux or Linux From Scratch.
