latest GRML doesn't have speakup

latest GRML doesn't have speakup

[Kitty Litter]

I downloaded GRML 2008.11 I386 RC1 and got it to boot from a USB stick 
without much trouble with SSH access. However, the speakup modules weren't 
there. They are using kernel 2.6.26.7. I will try making the speakup modules 
for this kernel but I don't want to install gRML. Anyone else interested in 
this?

Well Kitty, I was going to download this new release--and for weeks I have been 
trying to find out if the spelling issue was fixed?  You see it was spelling 
rather than pronouncing words.In corresponding with another lister here, I 
looked in the speakup archive--and-found mention of pre-empting a colonel.
Thanks in advance
Hart

Hello,
The 2008.11 RC1 CD I have includes speakup and espeakup. I am not 
getting the spelling issues with it. I do notice that sometimes when 
typing speakup lags on GRML and then suddenly catches up. I think this 
may be partly down to zsh responding.

Are you using the 64 bit version of 2008.11? The 32 bit version doesn't have 
speakup modules when I boot from stick.

I am using the 32-bit version for CD. The file I used is 
grml_2008.11-rc1.iso (note this is the full version, not grml_small or 
grml_medium).

Hello,
I thought this was the version I had downloaded and speakup is there. 
The only differences I am noticing are:
* You have the USB version whereas I have the CD image.
* You are talking about it having kernel 2.6.26, my version says it has 
kernel 2.6.26.

The software speech with speakup is using espeakup on my CD.

Are you using the actual RC1 release or a development build? Have you 
notified GRML about this?

I wouldn't like to see GRML loose speakup, its a good live CD for the 
command line.

I am using the .iso image from the GRML devel directory 2008.11 RC1. I 
copied the files from the image to the stick and installed syslinux and the 
appropriate syslinux.cfg. Kirk told me if you use bash rather than zsh the 
spelling problem goes away. I haven't tried this with my GRML 1.1 CD so who 
knows.

You could remaster the disk, if you put the modules in the right
place.  You might want to write to the author -- I forget his name
right now -- and see if he can include them -- this is rc1 after all.
