funny, but my situation was just the opisit. my double talk lt didn't work
in win eyes or jaws but it worked in linux with speakup and emacsspeak. i
called rc systems to ask a question on why and they tol me its cause win
eyes and jaws use they're  own drivers. they had me test my lt with
hyperterm and it worked there. but only works with a screen reader in linux.

Hi Friends.  It seems to me that my ambition to install and learn the ins
and outs of the linux OS has all but failed.  I have copied the installation
howto into braille to the letter as ready reference, done all that is
required of me at the preparation stage, even did almost nothing else but
tried to get FC3 installed for the past 2 days, but nothing seems to work.
I can't even get past the first stage of text installation simply because
speakup refuses to talk to my Dectalk express.  I cannot say if my dectalk
express is the source of the problem because it works very well with Wineyes
and jaws even.  I am totally stuck now and don't know what else I can do.
Unless someone who has installed linux with the dectalk express synth is
willing to help me, i'll have to shelf the idea of installing linux, at
least for the foreseeable future.  Cheers!
