BRLTTY problems
Hi all, Just wanted to try alpha6 of Ubuntu just to see if my hardware is working now. It didn't work that good with the 7.10 release. Isn't BRLTTY included on the alternate CD? I tried running install brltty=ts,ttyS0 but nothing happens. Many thanks, Christian -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

orca not recognising my sound card?
Hello all, I am attempting to run ubuntu 6.10 from the live cd. upon starting up normally, my sound card works fine, but when I attempt to use orca, no joy. There are no error messages and enable speech is checked. I have a real tech high definition audio card. that is all that shows up in windows device manager. I do not know how to force ubuntu to realise I have a sound card and let orca start speaking. Volume was at maximum, so that wasn't the issue. Any help is appreciated. Cordially, Taylor Hallelujah, the great storm is over. lift up your wings and fly!-- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility

For a start, I suggest you try out Ubuntu 7.10, as it is much newer than 6.10, and has much better accessibility. There are no error messages and enable speech is checked. Try disabling GNOME sound events from gnome-sound-properties, and see if you can get speech with GNOME sound events turned off. Let me know if you are unsure as to how to do this. Sounds like your card is supported, but something is getting the way of Orca speaking. Hope the above helps.

I recently looked for this in the linux version, and didn't find it. Is the update option in a different place, or is it missing. I thought I did find it there a few weeks ago, but it definitely isn't there now. If you are using firefox from the Ubuntu repositories, it has been removed for the simple reason that you use the repositories to get updates, and using firefox's update function without using the repository would break things.
