Speakup with SuSE Pro

Speakup with SuSE Pro

[Barry Murdoch]

Hello,

I am new on the list and wonder if Speakup is compatible with SuSE pro 7.3?
I have not used Linux or Speakup yet, but am almost ready to take the
plunge.

Thanks in advance,
Barry

As far as I know, few if any of us use Suse. So, you may be on your own
as far as the particulars of that distribution are concerned.

You seem to have maade up your mind, and that's certainly OK. However, I
want to quote you the advice we give in our installation HOWTO on this
subject:


   Clearly, all users can choose among several Linux distributions, and
   we note and applaud the Slackware team for including Speakup in their
   stock distribution since version 8.0. Which particular distribution
   one should choose is really a matter of personal choice. Our only
   advice is that users unfamiliar with Linux should choose a
   distribution for which they can most easily get help when they have
   questions. In other words, it's harder for the user of Red Hat to
help
   someone using Debian or Slackware. This is an important point because
   beginning users will most certainly have questions--many questions.
 
The complete HOWTO, now a bit out of date but still useful, is at:
