Subject: speakup "remembers" old screen
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2007 12:57:07 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <00f101c7341f$f5be7a00$4ba65c90@vv507j> (raw)
Occasionally I have a problem with speakup, it seems to re-read a screen
that was previously displayed rather than what is currently on the screen. I
don't really know of anything in particular that causes it. But, for
example, I might do a ifconfig and then a clear, and it will keep reading
the ifconfig info as if it's still on the screen.
I've noticed this behaviour in many versions of the kernel. I know at least
that it's happened with kernels i've compiled myself from 2.6.12 through
2.6.18. I can't say for sure that it's happened on machines running a kernel
downloaded from Shane's space on the debian server.
Anyway, I am mostly interested in knowing if there's a way to get speakup to
"refresh" itself or whatever.
