Hi,

 

I am trying to run slackware 14.1 with speakup.

I downloaded the slackware64 14.1 iso..

 

I added it to slackware, powered on the virtual machine and at the boot:
prompt, I typed

Huge speakup.synth=ltlk

 

There was no speech

 

I also tried

Linux speakup.synth=ltlk

 

Hugesmp speakup.synth=ltlk

 

Speakup.s speakup.synth=ltlk

 

All with no result.

 

I am using a doubletalk LT.

 

The serial port is setup in vmware as com1

And after the DVD boots in slackware, I can echo text to /dev/ttyS0 and the
doubletalk speaks it..

 

What is the correct command to enter at the boot prompt?

 

Does slackware current fix hardware synth problems?

If so, is there an iso of slackware current?

 

Thanks,

Ryan
