List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 07:10:04 -0000 Hi all, I know this is off-topic for this list in a way because it deals with orca, but then not so ot, because I want to get speakup running after install. I am trying to install ubuntu 7.04, and was wondering if someone here can help. An over-the-phone walk through would be awesome, but will settle for E-mail. Here is my problem: When I boot the live cd and enter a terminal, speech seems to be fine. When I follow instructions I found on the orca wiki, that say to enter "sudo su, unload orca, then type "orca --no-setup --disable main-window", I get the welcome, then a message that says, "switching to focus tracking mode", then no speech. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, Guy
