List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 08 Jul 2008 11:58:18 -0000 Hi, I applied speakup to a kernel out of debian sid (2.6.25-6) I believe it was. First, uname -a only says 2.6.25 it doesn't mention -6. But here are my speakup problems: - Using speechd-up (soft synth) I get crashes every 5 minutes or so. - When speakup is talking away numpad enter doesn't shut it up. I must do insert numpad enter and then turn it back on. - Sometimes speakup won't respond, eg. in mutt and I must kill speechd-up to shut it up and then restart speechd-up to get speakup going again. Anyone know how I can fix these? The next thing I was wondering: How do I load synths that are built in the kernel? eg. not modules? And just out of curiosity, how would one start a synth built as a module automatically? So at boot up say just before the log in screen?
