* sound and speakup howto @ Kristoffer Gustafsson ` Michael Whapples 0 siblings, 1 reply; 3+ messages in thread From: Kristoffer Gustafsson @ UTC (permalink / raw) To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. HI. Now I've gotten my soundcard to work as I wanted to have it. The thing is that you need to turn of digital output(jack) in order to get it to work. SO now I'm thinking about putting together a sound and speakup install howto for debian squeeze, if any of you are interested? speakup already comes built into the kernel, so you just need to load the speech module you want to use. I only ask for a little help in return. I've gotten trouble building speechd-up, it says that some library of speechd is missing, and that I shall read INSTALL. I've installed everything with speechd, and libspeechd, nothing happens. Could you help me please? /Kristoffer Kristoffer Gustafsson Trelleborgsvägen 1b 514 33 Tranemo tel: 0325-42093 mobil: 073-8226473 e-post: kg84@dreamwld.com Eller kristoffer_gustafsson@allmail.net ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Have you tried using the speechd-up package from the GRML repository? You can find the GRML repository at http://deb.grml.org and it follows the standard layout of debian repositories (look in folder "pool", then in "main", look in "s" and then go to the speechd-up directory). To answer the question of compiling from source. Are you sure you have all the required *-dev packages, remember debian separates the headers into separate packages.

Hi. I got it working yesterday. Don't ask me how I did, I just installed virtualbox, and qemu, and that installed some libraries that made speechd-up to work. I installed a .deb package that I had found. I don't know what was wroing, here is a speechd-up log from yesterday, with errors, Ok, there are softsynth errors here, but I didn't have any other modules loaded at the time. [Mon Jun 14 00:06:27 2010] speechd: Speechd-speakup starts! [Mon Jun 14 00:06:27 2010] speechd: Error while openning the device in read/write mode 2,No such file or directory [Mon Jun 14 00:06:27 2010] speechd: Trying to open the device in the old way.

Unable to open soft synth device (/dev/softsynth) What could have been wrong? /Kristoffer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Whapples" <mwhapples@aim.com> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup@braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Monday, June 14, 2010 6:17 PM Subject: Re: sound and speakup howto > Have you tried using the speechd-up package from the GRML repository?
