Re: speech question.
Hi Samuel. Thanks, that was very helpful. I'm using an older HP stream laptop. When I used the net installer to install bookworm, it saw my internal card, but the latest testing image didn't so I had to use an USB speaker it did see. After installing the system did come up talking from my internal sound card though so I assumed it was fine because Orca had no problems. After reading your message I booted using my USB speaker and found speakup works fine through that speaker. So for some reason it's not working with my internal sound card which is working because Orca speaks on the login screen.

Did you check the audio volumes? Perhaps also check what journalctl -u espeakup has to say. Samuel
Re: speech question.
Is there a program in Debian that will tell me the sound card this computer has? If not, I'll look it up and let you know.

Ah, then espeakup is kept configured to use that card. Change ALSA_CARD in /etc/default/espeakup the latest testing image didn't [see my internal card] Then as usual we need more information on your internal card, to know what could be missing inside the installer, such as firmware or whatnot.

Re: speech question.
It's an intel pch card if that can help you guys. Thanks again for your help. This should solve my problem. The reason I was enterested in automatic detection is because I want to put Debian on a portable drive to use it on different computers, but I can see your reasons for doing it this way.

Re: speech question.
Hi, I looked at an install of bookworm I did on an external hard drive. It says, alsa card=pch. I'll switch to this, thanks for your help. Maybe a feature could be added to detect different cards automatically?
