Public bug reported:
you can hear a demonstration of the talking bootloader by going to www
{dot} lalrecordings {dot} com ... this bug exists across all versions of
Ubuntu... OpenSuse has a talking accessible bootloader that use software
speech cut down to 8k very bad sounding but useable. I would like to see
a full talking bootloader in all ubuntu versions especially the one for
gnome. I am blind and may have to use the ubuntu bootloader both on line
cd and when it is installed. OpenSuse has it, there is no reason why
Ubuntu cannot have a talking bootloader. in OpenSuse, you know the boot
menu is up by hearing a short beep. press f9 to start the bootloader
talking screen reader that either uses ESpeak or .wav files cut down to
8khz. email me about this at jkenn337 {at sign} gmail {dot} com
