Installing speak up on Ubuntu server

Installing speak up on Ubuntu server

[Donna Aitkens]

Hi.
I'm taking a computer network class as part of my studies and we use Ubuntu server. I am new to speak up having only used orca. So my question is how do I install speak up and is there a default software synth in the package? Also how would I get speech right from boot?
Thanks

Hello Donna: I believe if it is a recent ubuntu speakup should already
be on the machine. You can try as root "modprobe speakup_soft" at a
shell prompt and if there is no messages it is installed. If that
works you will need to install the espeakup or speech-dispatcher
packages for software speech. You can do, once again as root,
"aptitude install espeakup" or apt-get if you prefer that.

If you get speakup working with those commands then you can just place
a line at the bottom of your /etc/modules file that says
"speakup_soft" without the quotes. Installing espeakup will
automatically set it up to start at boot.
