How do I Migrate from windows to Linux?		I'm using Windows now but I
really want to move to a blind accessible version of Linux. I've downloaded
Knoppix_speakup and oralux but can not get knoppix to talk and do not want
to learn the complicated commands of oralux. How can I get knoppix to talk
and what version of ubuntu or debian will talk right from the start? I'd
really like to move to Linux but I've had no luck so far. I'd really
appreciate feedback.

Have you got a hardware speech synthesizer that can be connected via a 
serial port to your computer?

WHat have you tried to do to get it going?

It depends on whether you have a hardware synthesizer, and whether you 
are willing to learn and possibly get help in getting things set up.

If you have a hardware speech synthesizer, you might be best off 
starting with Debian or Fedora, as there are CDs that can be downloaded 
that get you going with speech straight away. Ubuntu unfortunately 
doesn't offer a text installation that is spoken yet, but can be 
installed via GUI using the GNOME accessibility tools, although even 
that is still a bit fiddly.

The more info you give us, the better we can help you. So if you have 
any more info to add, as well as what has been asked previously in this 
email, that would be a great help to us.

At the boot prompt I typed "knoppix speakup_synth=dectlk" , then I tried the
knoppix speakup_synth=spkout and I also just let the boot timer run out and
let knoppix boot using the defaults (no arguments). None of my attempts
worked.

Do you happen to know whether the serial port being used is on the 
actual computer motherboard, and that is using standard port and irq 
settings?

I'm trying to get this running on a ThinkPad X60s which is currently resting
in a docking station on which the serial port is located. I've checked the
serial port settings and they are set to the standard defaults. 9600 bits
per second, 8 data bits, no parity, stop bits 1 and no flow control. The IRQ
is 04.

RE: your mail

[Michael Whapples]

I am unsure that speakup works with serial synths under such a
configuration, although I am not completely sure, may be someone who
knows for sure can say. I think this is due to speakup using its own
serial driver rather than the standard Linux driver. If there is
actually a serial port on the machine then you would do better
(possibly) using that, otherwise read on about the alternatives.

I personally would say for a laptop (particularly if you want it to be
mobile) would be to use software synthesis, ubuntu uses this by default
for orca, although any distro would allow you to use software speech
with speakup (although it might need setting up). This means that
distros with accessible install CDs/live-CDs are more limited. As I said
ubuntu is accessible with software speech (using Orca in gnome a GUI),
and I am lead to believe that GRML also has everything on the CD for
software speech (using speakup, text console). 

The question of text console or gnome (GUI) for someone new to linux
with windows experience is one you may wish to consider. Although Orca
may be still in fairly early stages, I feel it is worth considering, as
gnome will have similarities to windows for usage (some hotkeys may
differ from the windows equivilent, but concepts are very close), and
you will be using some software which is more main stream so more
compatable (firefox for a web browser, openoffice for office
applications, etc). Text consoles may be more well developed (as they
have been accessible for a long time), interaction may be quicker when
you are used to it, and suited better to the linear output of speech,
but you will find applications are less main stream, so compatability
may be less (web browser is lynx, elinks or links to name a few, but
sometimes websites can be awkward and want some specific things in web
browsers, and so not work correctly, so either you may find you use
different web browsers on different web sites, or in some very rare
cases it might not work at all (I have had that)).

If you really want to use the hardware synth, but have no serial port
which works with speakup, then you can try one of the screen readers
that run as a normal application so use standard linux drivers. For text
consoles there is YASR and screader. There is also emacspeak, but this
uses the emacs environment on linux and suspect this is what you were
referring to when you mentioned the commands for oralux. Also if you
install emacspeak, Orca can use emacspeak servers for output, so you
could use (possibly) your hardware synth with Orca.

Hope this helps,
Michael Whapples

Re: Linux from windows

[Michael Whapples]

I think ubuntu would be a good way to go if you are used to windows at
the moment. The current release of ubuntu has everything you would need
for an independent accessible install. The latest release 6.10 edgy EFT
I mean, not the testing release 7.4 Feisty. There's information about
Orca the gnome screen reader (which ubuntu uses by default) at
http://live.gnome.org/Orca and there is information about accessible
installation as well. Note one problem which you may have is that your
sound card may not automatically be unmuted by the ubuntu CD (it might
be true for other distro CDs such as knoppix). Unless you have some
other way of accessing your computer (e.g. hardware synthesiser, braille
display, possibly serial terminal) you will need sighted assistance to
unmute the sound card.

You can normally have both linux and windows installed on the same
system, so you will be able to fall back to windows if there are tasks
that are too much at first. Ubuntu can sort out the disk for you so that
windows and linux work together, other distros may have there own tools,
but I don't know how automatic all of them are. If you are concerned
about it messing up your system there are ways to make the CD versions
of linux store settings on something like a usb drive, then your hard
disk will not be altered, I think there is information about this for
ubuntu in the documentation for it.

The above is assuming you are intending to use software speech
synthesis, if different then the difficulties you are having with
knoppix would be different, so different solutions are needed.

Hope this was of use,

Anthony,
Go to the site:
http://www.ubuntu.com/
Download the desktop version, 9.10, even if you have a laptop, and burn the 
ISO image to a CD.
Then boot to this CD, and as soon as the disk stops spinning, do the 
following:
Press enter, it is on English
Press F5 for accessibility options
Press 3 for screenreader
Press enter one or two more times, and it should come up talking.
You will be running off of a CD, and you can explore Ubuntu.
HTH.

Re:

That's a really difficult question to answer to be fair LOL.

I went from windows to using FC4 via SSH, then i got software speech working 
on FC4, now I use primarily Ubuntu, and FC6 when I can get it working. But 
Ubuntu is by fair the easiest.

If you need help with anything privately, although I'm not the best person 
to ask, I'm more than happy to help you out as much as I can (over MSN if 
it's easier).

Re: your mail

[tony seth]

Hi there, I know it's kind of late, but I gotta jump in here as I've 
had a similar problem involving a thinkpad.  If you checked the serial 
port settings in windows, they may show up, but in fact it may be off 
in the bios.  You'll need sighted assistance to double check that its 
is enabled, but usually it isn't by default as I found out a few days 
ago.  While on the subject, you may also want to take a gander at grml, 
it's very accessible right from the upstart and you can have software 
speech up in no time.

espeakup v0.1 released

[William Hubbs]

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

All,

I am pleased to announce the release of espeakup-0.1.  Espeakup is a
connector which will allow you to use espeak as your software
synthesizer with speakup.

Kirk will be posting shortly a location where you can get a tarball of
this release.

If you are comfortable working with git, you can get a read only copy of
the repository by doing

git clone git://hubbs.homedns.org/espeakup.git

Also, a version of this program will be available shortly in the contrib
directory of the speakup git repository and official releases will be
made available as packages I'm sure.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to let me
know.

Thanks,

William

Morning, 

I'm looking for the Speakup patch for kernel 2.6.25.x and 2.6.26.x.  Does anyone know where I might find it? 

Thanks

Darragh

Hi,
What would be the advantage of using espeakup in place  of the espeak, 
speech-dispatcher, speechd-up and speakup configuration?
Does espeakup support change of speech language in any way?
TIA, Willem

The main one should be fine.
