Next enter these two commands: reset stty sane and if your console display was screwed up, that will unscrew it. Now if your synth is still not working, we have at least eliminated some co;mmon problems that would also kill your speech. What is your synth? Turning it off and on again might help, but also you can ask speakup to reinitialize it. Here is the nitty gritty way to do that, although once you get up and running there may be simpler scripts to help. Enter these two commands, being careful with the typing, of course: echo "none" > /proc/speakup/synth_name and then enter it again, substituting the official abbreviation of your particular synth. For instance, "ltlk" for the litetalk, "bns" for the braille and speak, "txprt" for the artic transport, etc. Chuck On Tue, Jan 17, 2006 at 04:41:27PM -0800, tyler wrote: > yes. > Tyler Littlefield. -- The Moon is Waning Gibbous (89% of Full) But you can still get downloads from http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh
