Re: the sbl screen reader
Dear users, As i know, SBl (suseblinux screen reader) is included in some Opensuse repository, and Adriane Knoppix is also having this screen reader included and it's configuration files has been modified, so this screen reader is not communicating with external synthesizer or with supported braille device, but with Speechdispatcher directly. Thank's to MR Klaus Knopper and his colleagues, who are professional developers. I did not find computer, which would be incompatible with Ubuntu Jaunty, some very old computers, dated to year before year 2000 will have troubles not with plaing greeting sound when Gnome has been started, but with cooperation with Espeak and other synthesizers. I Am recommending all professional programmerrswho are now in this mailing list, if they would start professional academic discussion with competent programmers, who are responsible for developing The Linux kernel. Also developers of Sepakup could be invited to this programmers discussion. Why core developers of Linux kernel do notwant to officially include Speakup patch to The kernel? Debian distro and also Ubuntu can use this package made special packages to include Speakup with Espeak, i do not know The names of all packages, which are necessary to install Speakup support with Espeak. Even NTFS3G support is awailable in The Debian repository, so Debian users do not have to recompile whole kernel to include support for NTFS access. And in Ubuntu, this driver is officially included for more than 2 years. , -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

Thank's to MR Klaus Knopper and his Your informations are not correct. Sbl can use several hw synths like apollo2 infovox 700 (many other can be added easyly). the following software synthesizers are supported: festival, ttsynth (viavoice), speech-dispatcher and mbrola (only german). Braille display's are supported as well. I am interestedto know how did you get these infos? speakup is an interesting project but it has the same limitation like other screenreaders. (try to use apps with softcursor like mc alsamixer ...).

Re: the sbl screen reader
Dear syr, I know, that SBL can support those devices, i told about configuration files, which has been modified in The Adriane Knoppix distribution, to enable support of Speechdispatcher. I know, that those devices can be supported. I constructed bad sentences. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

Speakup can do programs like alsamixer by pressing the * key on the numeric keypad and using hilight tracking.

Re: the sbl screen reader
Hi, No I have tested speakup and used the highlight tracking mode. Sorry this is nice but not working correctly when two highlights are used. speakup can't read the menu in mc correctly. in alsamixer it reads not only the highlighted mixer. Guys have a lookup to sbl.
