Got a documentation question

    Hello all,

    Got a question about documentation.  If you only have a single computer, an unknown sound card, and a semi-operational copy of Mickeysoft, how do you get a fresh copy of Linux running with one of these software speech synthesizers?
    Is there any documentation somewhere that can explain the steps needed to perform such an installation?  Thanks in advance,

        Michael

If you go to the Modified Speakup home page at
http://www.speakupmodified.org, there is complete and detailed
documentation on just how to do what you're wanting to do.  You should
know before you start, however, that currently only one or two
external speech synthesizers are supported for performing the
installation.  After you install, you can add software speech
capability by purchasing the new TTSynth package (see the
aforementioned web page for details).

Hi

Alternatively, you could download a copy of either Ubuntu or GRML and open a shell to establish your hardware details.  Fedora will not provide speech until after the installation, unless one of the supported hardware synths are attached.  But I note that the subject is about the appropriate documentation.  Thus it would be either Ubuntu or GRML, visit either site and read what you can.  If your Windows installation won't manage the download, you get the disks by a number of other ways.  Front of magazine, Linux User Groups or from Cheapbytes etc.  On the disk there should be documentation to get it up and running.

There's also several howto's that you could view online, if they should be what it is you want.  The DOS and Windows to Linux HOWTO and there are several getting started guides.
