Ok will give that a try as have tried both v.3.01 and v.3.1 of Vinux and no sound.
About how long should it take to boot up suing a live cd/DVD which understand will vary depending on the speed of the computer.

Then if you're not using a live cd/dvd and would like to make the change permanent, alt tab back to the terminal and run: sudo gedit /etc/init.d/pulseaudio Scroll down and change 'sleep 4' to 'sleep 12' on line 39 then save this file. Next time you restart, the sound should be fine. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Don Risavy, Jr." <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2011 7:58 PM Subject: [Blind-Computing] Vinux > Wondered if anyone has had success using and or getting Vinux for the blind > to run on your computers ? > > > > Have downloaded several iso copies from the vinux web page and burned it to > a cd or DVD and booted up my other desktop and don't ever seem to get speech > to come on using a Creative labs Audigy sound card. > > > > So thought would ask here since thought would be a computing question more > than a tech question. > > > > Thanks. > > > > > > > > For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: > http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
