Re: Orca does not speak

2016-08-07 Thread Glenn / Lenny
Now that you mention that,
I wonder if I could have gone to a terminal and did:
sudo apt-get update
and fixed the problem.
I could have done that much without speech.

If you do try anymore ubuntu I suggest getting your system installed.
If your new system talks, only download missing packages you want and if
you suddenly loose speech and haven't rebooted remove what you just
installed.  On no account do any system-wide updates of that new system
until you read on this list that the no sound problem you have has been
solved and wait for at least one confirmation message from another user
who did the update and has orca working.

the update command only updates your local version of the packages 
database, you would next have to have done apt-get upgrade and hope the

To do what the arch downgrade script does, you would have to get a package
manager to show your installed package version and a a numbered list of
all other versions.  Then you'd select the version and select whether to
ignore versions higher than what's installed in the future.  Many times a
whole group of packages have to be downgraded together in order not to
break dependencies and in what you'll read below it's a pretty big list
with respect to pulseaudio.  How all of this is done with apt-get or
aptitude I never did learn.

I've fixed it! I had to downgrade libpulse, pulseaudio,
pulseaudio-bluetooth, pulseaudio-zeroconf, pulseaudio-lirc, and
pulseaudio-gconf from 9 to 8.3 or maybe it's 4, I then removed
.config/pulseaudioctl and .config/pulse restarted and I have sound!
thanks all this was really worrying me!

hi Krishnakant.

I assume you are talking about hardy. if so, the installer is being worked 
on. we will be notified when this bug is solved so that we can test.
