Re: [Audyssey] DOS for iphone?
Hi, You can just compile speakup as modules and install it into your allready running kernel. Just do: make make modules_install Inside of the speakup source tree. Take care, Rynhardt * Thomas Ward thomasward1...@gmail.com [110516 23:40]: Hi Zachary, Thanks for the suggestion. Been a while since I've played around with Dos EMU. Actually, been a long time since I touched Speakup as well for that matter as I absolutely hate having to recompile the entire kernel just to install a screen reader. So I've tended not to mess with Speakup. Of course there is Vinux, but I don't have that installed. Just the stock Ubuntu distribution.

Re: [Audyssey] DOS for iphone?
Its a shame there is not a fully accessable dos emulator for windows. I can play dos games with nvda just fine but it uses something called ntvdm and space bars work but are not spoken and I can delete my mistakes. Its a shame since I can play my standard frotz and tads games in dos mode and I like that that way. At 07:28 a.m. 17/05/2011, you wrote: Hi Petr, Yes, I do see where you are going with your thinking.
