Subject: [gentoo-accessibility] report on the latest minimal cd
Date: Sun, 31 Jan 2010 18:52:46 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <d94ae6cb1001311552q752b4cb9g70365fe3fa7fc29d@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi all,

Just downloaded the current Gentoo minimal cd
(install-x86-minimal-20100126.iso) and tried
gentoo speakup.synth=soft
I still didn't get any speech, but I found "speaker-test" and "espeak
hi" worked perfectly. I also tried this:
find / -type f -name "speakup*" | espeak --stdin
And the speakup kernel modules weren't in the list (although there was
a speakup ebuild and speakupconf). Another thing I tried was
espeakup 2> /dev/stdout | espeak --stdin
and got "unable to open the softsynth device: no such file or
directory." So it seems the speakup tools are there, but speakup
itself isn't.

Hope this helps somehow.
