telling speakup to use ttyS1

telling speakup to use ttyS1

[Joshua Lambert]

In your boot loader, you need to pass the location of your serial port to 
speakup if you explicitly want ttyS1.
speakup_ser=ttyS1
Would do it from the get go.
You will have to read the docs for your boot loader to figure out how to 
pass parameters to the kernel command line.

Is this in answer to my question about setting speakup to use ttyS1 at 
the command line? I'm not sure because the subject line is similar but 
not the same.  I specifically was asking if it can be set at the command 
line because setting the speakup parameters in the bootloader config 
hangs my system.

Although, maybe you're saying I cant set speakup_ser via a boot 
parameter, leave out speakup_synth,  and then later initialize the synth 
at the command line.  Is that what you're saying?

I tried it. It didn't work. Although, maybe it is supposed to work and 
my computer is messed  up.

He's telling you to pass that as a parameter to the kernel I believe. As
he's speaking about the boot loader.
That would probably be better...
Have you tried it this way?

Yes, that's correct. Yes, this subject is in regards to your original
message. If you want to specify speakup_ser as a kernel parameter,
then you'll also need to specify speakup_synth as a kernel
parameter. I'm fairly sure, especially after reading the responses to
your question, that what you want to do can't be done at the command
prompt, it can only be done via kernel parameters.

Ah! Thanks.    Even a negative answer is better than none.
