* FC 6 disk problems. @ Darragh Ó Héiligh ` Nick Gawronski 0 siblings, 1 reply; 6+ messages in thread From: Darragh Ó Héiligh @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: speakup Hello, I've downloaded both the 5 disk images and the one DVD image but I have not had any luck with the installation. With the CD's I get an error about a missing open office rpm as it's starting installation and still on disk one after checking dependancies. When I use the DVD I get errors at the starting anaconda stage just after the media test. I haven't actually tested the media. I'm just going to wait for another two hours or so and reburn the DVD to see if I get any further with that but can anyone shed some light on this in the mean time? It's late-ish here so I'll probably retackle this in about eight hours time. Thanks Darragh Blog at www.digitaldarragh.com ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

Sten-Clanton @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Yes, FC6 has speakup support during installation, if you have a hardware speech synthesizer. This link should take you directly to the installation howto: http://speakupmodified.org/HOWTO_INSTALL.html The howto is for installing FC3. Some things have changed, but not the instructions relevant to your question. Hope this helps.

Hello again, Ok, in the process of burning this DVD image to disk right now but it's the same size as the last one so I have a feeling it's just going to spit out the same error. I've tried this on my laptop and desktop with the same results so although this desktop is slightly dodgy at times I've ruled that out as being the cause of the problem. Thanks.

Sten-Clanton @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Hi, Nick! Yes, you'd download the CD or DVD image(s) from a link at http://www.speakupmodified.org I like to use ncftp and go to ftp.speakupmodified.org/speakupmodified/fedora/6/i386/iso and download the whole batch of bad boys using the bgget command. (Note: The first time, ncftp only took me as far as ftp.speakupmodified.org. After eventually getting to the right place via the cd command and saving the thing as an ncftp bookmark, though, getting back there's a snap.) It's been about two months since I installed FC3, so I've largely forgotten what differences there are between that installation and the FC6 one I tried this afternoon. One annoying difference is this, though: you no longer have the "everything" selection at the end of the package or package group list of what you want to install. There are three main choices, something like office productivity tools, development stuff, and Web server stuff. I selected all of these, hitting the space bar and checking that there's an asterisk to indicated selection. I then go to the customize (or whatever it's called), hit enter, and arrow down to check for asterisks and add them where necessary. (Selecting all three main groups does not select "authoring and publishing," for example.) I hope this helps some. I also hope it shows up on the list, since last night's attempt to reply bounced like a rubber cybercheck.
