Good point. Should it still have X and KDE, or perhaps should we go
ultra-minimal and just have the console? I've started modifying things,
I just made packages for portaudio and espeak, installed them into the
initrd space along with alsa, installed espeakup, and modified the
/etc/rc.d/rc.S script to start alsa and espeakup. I also modified the
isolinux.cfg to load the speakup kernel by default with the
speakup.synth=soft parameter, so hopefully everything will just start
automagically. We'll see about this.


I'll keep hacking away, and may create a site so as not to clutter the
list. I have a good feeling about this project.
