Re: USB sound card

[Nick Gawronski]

Hi, Where is a good tutorial on getting software speech working with 
speakup or X windows?  Will speakup ever support X windows threw 
modules or other means?  I have a dectalk express and would like to be 
able to use it in gnome.

software speech (Re: USB sound card)

Well, if you run debian linux, you may be able to follw the directions at 
this page:
http://www.math.wisc.edu/~jheim/debian/

That page is a work in progress. Toward the bottom are instructions for 
installing software speech. But it's really just 2 simple steps to get 
software speech working with debian linux. All you  have to do is edit your 
sources.list file and then run the apt-get commands to install the packages.

Hi, Why does that page not have a deb-src line and if I add that will I be 
able to get the sources?  Are you going to fix the gpg issue like shane did 
for his debian speakup stuff?
