I got a new dell, and was not blessed with having serial ports on the motherboard. I'm gonna install Ubuntu 7.04 tomorrow, so if no one can recommend a good synth that will work with speakup, can someone point me in the right way of getting it up and running with 7.04? There are times when I'd rather work at the command line rather than gui. Thanks in advance for all the help. Guy P.S. I guess I have a couple more questions after downloading and burning the ISO. What is the best way to get firefox 3, and how do you go about getting a spoken install with 7.04? Thanks again for all the help.
