OK, last weekend we upgraded from FC6 to FC9. So far with a USB DecTalk, 1
item is better. I am not seeing those rtc interrupts at 1024HZ. However,
other items are still happening. When the machine boots, even though in a
configuration, my rate is set at 7 and pitch 141, the rate seems to be at 10
and pitch is 81.
While useing scrolling, the pitch-and-rate still are substancially knocked
down. 1 interesting thing happened this morning which I thought would lead us
to why. I was running bittorrent-console I was saving a file called Wastaid
While this client was still scrolling, I was trying to read characters of the
file name. Each time it would go from the capitol W to a regular a the pitch
would drop considerably--and it would say "dv ap 1 hundred and sixty-nine" I
think dv is a DecTalk command. So now, to experiment, I closed bittorren--and
review the screen, I cannot duplicate. I even tried typing on a line all
regular--and-capitolized letters to see if anything strange happened, no, but
from this behavior--and other times when I type capitol letters, I notice odd
things
Thanks for listening
Hart
