Enabling Speakup in Vinux?

[Glenn]

Hi Larry,
You need to install Voxin differently in Vinux.
Here's a page that will explain the steps.

Also, speakup should come up in a shell.
I prefer Voxin to eSpeak too.
Perhaps if you get Voxin installed, you will get speech in a terminal.
HTH.

Hi All: First, I had no easy way of joining a Vinux list, as you must sign 
in
through google groups-and-google won't even send a password reminder, and
writing to a contact address at Vinux did no good.
It would sure be alot easier-and-`much more helpful if they had a windows
executable to run to install, instead of needing to jump through hoops with 
an
iso. To my surprise it let us install Vinux along side windows vista, 
without
nuking a JAWS authorization.
So now if I boot Vinux, I get what seems to be a graphical with `horrible
speech, probably e-speak. But if I switch to a console, I get no speech. I 
did
purchase Voxen, which I would always rather hear. Unfortunately, the Vinux 
WIKI
does not provide any instructions in configuring or setting up speech. Also,
while I don't mind having graphical as an option, I would rather it boot in 
a
TCSH shell with Speakup-and-Voxen. I can supposedly edit whatever files 
would be
required, in Notepad in windows to accomplish these, if some1 will please 
inform
what to edit. This is a 64bit image, for some reason, as a duel boot there 
are
some other test items which I should remove. On the WIKI, it makes 
refferences
to having both Speakup-and-YASR, so please, how do I enable these? Thanks so
much in advance
Hart
